CAPITOL TRIAL DELAYED
ttate's Expert Witnesses to Measure
Metallic Furniture,


Harrisburg, Pa. May 22.-The CAPT
tol metallic furniture contract con
spiracy trial was unexpectedly ad
journed until Monday to permit the
commemorative expert witnesses to
make measurements necessary in the
trial.
The state had completed expert tes-
timony covering furniture supplied un,
der the bill mentioned in the indict-
ment and under bills gotten In evi,
dence and was about to offer proofs
of the system of charging under other
bills when it was found that the ex,
perts here had not measured the cases
covered. The cases had been meas
ured by Charles D. Montagu, the ex'
pert for the probers. who went to
Europe and stayed there, and owing to
his absence the state had to get new
experts. The fact that they had not
made all the measurements forced the
interruption Of the trial.

cistern Finds $4,000 Bonds.

Cleaning CIstern FINDS $5U,UOO 6onos.
Vineland, N. j.. May 22.-All New
field was excited when it was learned
that A. S. Handle had found $4,000
worth of bonds at the bottom of an
old cistern he was cleaning. Handle is
the village barber, and soon his shop
was besieged by anxious neighbors
and friends, whose congratulations
we're most hearty. The bonds were
issued by the West Jersey railroad
forty-two years ago to John Handle,
father of the barber. The elder Kan
die died about fifteen years ago. and
old neighbors recall to mind his oft
repeated assertion that he had wealth
but could not use it. The reason is
now found to be that somehow. the
bonds got into the cistern, where they
have lain for over forty years. Kand.e
Immediately took his find to lawyer
friend in Camden, and as the lawyer
advised silence until he could make an
investigation, Handle refuses full de-
tails.

Testimony Showed Marriage Certificate
Was Printed Three Months After the
Alleged Ceremony, and Court Orders
Her Arrest On Perjury Charge.

Her Arrest On Perjury Charge.
J New York, May 22.-Mae c. Wood.
whose suit for an absolute divorce
from United States Senator Thomaa
C. Platt, Of New York, has been ON
trial in the superior court here foI
several days, was committed to the
TOmbs prison after Justice O'Gorman
had dismissed the complaint in he1
action and ordered her held In $50oC
bail on charge Of perjury.
The decision in Senator Platts
favor and the sudden and sensational
end of the suit came after day which
the defense occupied largely with the
introduction of expert and other test
mony attacking the authenticity of the
documents by which the plaintiff was
seeking to establish her alleged mar
rage to Senator Platt. A handwriting
expert testified that in his opinion the
body of the letter in which Senator
Plat was alleged to have admitted
relation as husband to the plaintiff
was added after the senator's sigma
ture had been affixed. More telling
still for the defense was the deposi-
lions by engravers and stationers
called by counsel for Senator Platt
that the blank form upon which the
alleged .Platt-Wood marriage certi1-
cate was prepared was not Autograph
ed until three months after the date
upon which the marriage of Miss Woed

taken place. Miss Wood was recalled
to the stand in rebuttal. She was ask.
ed If, after hearing the testimony
about the marriage certificate she
still reiterated that the defendant gave
her the certificate as she previously
testified.
81 still reiterate it." she replied.
Justice O'Gorman turned to Miss
Wood and pointedly questioned her.
She repeated her assertion that the
marriage occurred as she had ctated.
She admitted that Senator Platt. had
never supported her, and when asked
by the court II she did not consider it
the duty of q husband to support his
wife she replied:

Senator Platt's counsel then again
moved for a dismissal of the com
plant 1t was forthwith granted by
Justice O'Gorman, who in rendering
his decision said:
Il cannot credit the plaintiffs evil
dence as to the alleged marriage, and
the testimony as it impresses the court
is that this Is a most wicked design
to support d false and fictitious claim
by forgery and perjury
Forthwith Justice O'Gorman ordered
Miss Wood committed to the Tombs
on the charge of perjury, fixing bail in
her case at $4,000, She was obviously
staggered by the sudden turn of affairs
and the shock caused by the order of
arrest which the court made. She
quickly regained her composure. how
ever, and by the time she reached the
city prison had resumed the air of
confidence which she held practically
throughout the trial.
At the district attorneys Office ii
was said that Miss Woods case would
speedily be presented to the grand
jury and pressed for trial if an indict
mens was found.

FACTS AGREED UPON
 IN MANDAMUS SUIT
A Statement in Hereford Tritle Matter Filed Yesterday.

An agreed statement of the facts in the case of F. H. Hereford against Fred H. Tritle, clerk of the supreme court, was filed in district court yes terday There is set forth in the state ment the facts alleged in the complaint filed on August 26; that the plaintiff wa sthe owner of a judgment of the amount of $15,000 granted in the dis trict court at Tucson in the case of w. c. Greene and the Greene Cattle com pany against F. H. Hereford, this judgment being granted June IA, 1907; that an appeal was taken to the ter ritOrial supreme court which on March 21 affirmed the judgment; that mo- tion for a rehearing was overrGled on May 19s and notice of appeal to the United States supreme court was given; that on June 10, Eugene $. Ives, attorney for the appellant, filed a petition for a writ of error, assign ments of error, citation and a super scdeas bond in the sum of 25,000, that amount having been fixed by Chief Justice Kent; that the bondsmen of fered were B. A. Packard and Epes hdll'< 1lpHs lIldI ODJeCllOn WAS HlduS to the latter on the ground that he was one of the appellants sureties on the appeal from the district to the su- preme court; that the objection was sustained; that Mir. Ives secured iron; Chief Justice Kent an order for stay until October 1 on the ground that as the chief justice wa sabout to leave the territory and would not return until that time it would be impossible to file a bond earlier; that demand wa smade in writing on the clcrl; of the supreme court to send down the mandate and the other papers in the case, since no appeal to the United States supreme court had been per fected within the time allowed by law. that the clerk of the court had refused to issue such mandate.
 On behalf of the defendant in this action it is agreed thta the petition of MT. Ives for stay until october 1 was made in good faith in order that he might secure a bond for a writ of error.
 The case is brought to determine the right of the chief justice to grant such a stay. It is not a battle for blood. The plaintiff and the defendant are cousins

AUTO PASS IN THE AIR
"ThrilIer" With Barnum and Bailey
 Reaches Point that Terrifies.

The mOrbidminded originator of cir GUS thrillers has just come to the front with the masterpiece of his devilish imagination in the shape of an act styled Autos that Pass in the Air" It Barnum and Bailey Greatest Show on
 Earth. It is the Dantes Inferno of circus sensations.
 The new ''Terrorizer'-and it mer- it's the name-is performed by two slender French girls, the La Raque sisters. Each in a separate automobile they plunge simultaneously from the dome of the canvas down a morrow single track set at an angle of 45 de- grees, leap yawning gap. during which one car turns a complete revO- lutiOn around the other automobile and land with a crash on a narrow platform, one car immediately behind the other, their previous order revers- ed.
 One automobile is red, the other blue that spectators may be able to follow their separate mid-air maneuvers. At that it is a most perpleXing perform ance and almost terrorizing in it's eff feet upon spectators. When the two heavy cars leave the track for their flight through space it is not possible to conceive how the two young women are to escape a frightful death. Should the two cars deviate from their proper course, even the fraction of an inch,
 there can be no doubt as to the awful result, and a sigh of relief invariably rises from the audience when the ma chimes have landed safely.
 The act requires just four seconds,
 but the strain of that brief moment is more than many can stand. Hundreds of eyes are turned from the sight, and even the man with nerves of iron is glad when the feat is safely occom- plished. It is said to be ten-fold more dangerous than any circus act of the past, and the statement is not for a moment doubted by those who have seen it. Acts that have passed as thrilling in former seasons are tame in comparison. It seems that the La Ra- que sisters are, in their ath-coaxing act, skirting the Great Divide by the closet margin possible.
 When the Barnum and Bailey Great est Show on Earth appears in Phoenix Sept. 2S, it will be given additional charm by the return of the great free street parade feature-not the old pa rade of former years, and not a pa rade like that of any other circus, but one of greater magnitude and novelty that has gathered strangeness and strength and beauty during many years travel of the circus through all the countries of the earth It is wonderful worlds exposition. Years have been spent in the gathering of it and fortunes lavished on it's execu- ton.

FIND BODY OF LILLE OLSEN
Remains Of Missing Child Discovered
In Ravine Near Her Home.

Resale, Neb., April 1.-THE body Of
Lille Olsen, the child who disappeared
~mysterlously from the home of her
parents near here, was found by two
little girls, who were picking flowers
on the prairie. The remains were in
u rayine two and one.half miles from
the Olsen home, plainly in view. The
body was badly decomposed, but iden-
tification was made easy from the
clothing. The coroner has been sum.
mOned and an inquest will be held.
There was nothing to indicate that
the little girl me death from other
than natural causes, supposedly as the
result Of hunger and exposure. 1t Is
inexplicable, however, that the body
escaped detection when the district
was gone over time and again by
searching parties who secured the
neighborhood at the time Of the dis.
appearance. Gypsies were at one time
accused OF kidnapping the girl, and ar.
rests were made, but evidence against
them was lacking.

city from a point lea the boundary
between Everett and Chelsea to the
waters OF Chelsea creek. 1t was use

check the %on.rushing flames before the

prevent a spread Of the fire on either

official announcement was made by
Chief II. A. Spencer that the fire was

All the banks. more than three
