FINDS SPEEDING
COSTLY SPORT
NEW YORK CHAUFFEUR GETS
HARD SENTENCE FOR DRIVING
A CAR TOO FAST.

NEW YORK, November 5.-Pleading
guilty in the Court of Special Sessions
today ON two charges of overspeed-
ing his automobile and one of escaping
arrest, Ellis H. Kulp, q years old, a
demonstration for an automobile COM
pany, was sentenced by Judge Zeller
to pay a fine of $3.50 and serve twenty
days in the Tombs prison. The wit
ness against him was Motorcycle Ser
geant Nerney. Letters were written to
District Attorney Jerome by the Auto
mobile Club of America and Police
Commissioner Bingham, asking him to
have an example made of Kulp by
furnishing him as severely as possible.
Judge Zeller suspended the sentence on
the overspeeding complaints and i'm
posed the fine and Imprisonment for
escaping arrest.
On August 10th Simon r. We'll, ac-
companied by three women, was taken
out in an automobile for demonstra-
ton. When returning Nerney rode up
alongside the car and called to Kulp
to stop, as he was running at an un-
lawful rate. He arrested Kulp, and
while on his way to the station the
demonstration suddenly started his car
full speed and left Nerney behind. Kulp
tore across Van Cortland Park at a
terrific rate Near Riverside hill We'll
compelled Kulp to stop the car long
enough to let him and the three wo-
men out, as they were on the verge
of collapse from fright This enabled
Nerney to catch up with Kulp. He
drew his pistol and commanded the
chauffeur to stop. but Kulp sped on,
and at Manhattan avenue and One
Hundred and Fiftieth street the auto
mobile was lost to view. On Septem-
Der Sd Nerney heard that Kulp was to
be arraigned in the Special Sessions
on another charge of speeding and he
arrested the chauffeur

FIRST WORDS ON THE REsUL

LINCOLN, (Neb.), November 5-Wil-
liam Jennings Bryan today issued the
following statement:
THE election has gone against us by
decisive majority. The returns are
not all in, and it is impossible at the
present time to analyze them or to say
what causes contributed most to the
Republican victory. We made our fight
upon a platform which embodies what
we believed to be good for the Ameri-
can people, but 1t is for the people
themselves to decide what laws they
desire and what methods of govern
ment they prefer.
81 have faith that the publicity of
campaign funds which we asked for
will yet commend itself to the Ameri-
can people, that the election of SEN
ators by the people. will be secured,
that the iniquities of the trust will
arouse an opposition that will result
in the elimination of the principle of
private monopoly. am confident that

G. E. WOLF KILLED

HUNTING NEAR MANILA
SAN FRANCISCO, November e.
William Wolf of this city will sail
on the Manchuria next Wednesday. He
is going to Manila to bring back the
remains of his brother, George E. Wolf,
who died there recently. His mother
and three sisters sailed from Sydney,
Australia, last Wednesday for Manila
on the same mission. George e. Wolf
met with an accident while out hunt
ing, was injured by caribou, and died
six days later. He leaves a widow in
Manila, who will return with the re-
mains.
Wolf was a native of Oakland, 40
years of age, and was raised in San
Francisco. He went to the Philippines
Immediately after the fall of Manila,
engaged in business and was very sue
cessful, taking the lead among Amer
lean importers in the Philippine ISL
a. DIS, with agencies in London, New
York, Sydney, Yokohama and other
ports, the principal house being Will
liam Wolf & Sons in this city. He
was in partnership with Maurice Low
enstein, also of this city, who married
the sister of Oscar Sutro, and was as
ISOLATED with Castle Brothers, whose
interest in the Manila house he ac-
quired. George Wolf was a man of
generous impulse and was very popu-
lar on this sCoast as. well as in the
Philippines.

Neither am l able to adequately eX-
press my appreciation for the kind
words which have been spoken since
the election.
IF l could regard the defeat as
purely a personal one, l would con-
slider it a blessing rather than a mis-
fortune, for l am relieved of the bur-
dens and responsibilities of an Office
that is attractive only in proportion as
it gives an opportunity to render a
larger public service. But l shall
serve as willingly IN private capacity
as in a public one. God does not re-
uuire great things of us. He only re-
uuires that we improve the opportuni-
ties that are presented, and l shall be
glad to improve the opportunities for
service presented by private life.
"In this hour of national defeat /
find some consolation in the cordial
support given by my neighbors, by the
citizens of Lincoln and by the people
of the State of Nebraska. With a
Democratic Governor and Democratic
Legislature we shall be able to put into
practice so much of the Democratic
platform as relates to State legislation
and trust that our state will set an
example that will be an influence for
good in the Nation"

GENERAL WESTON
IN POOR HEALTH

MANILA, November THE health
of Major-General John F. Weston,
commanding the Division of the Phi
lippines, has become a matter of such
concern that unless his condition is
improved he will probably request the
War Department at Washington to re-
lieve him of the command and depart
for San Francisco by the transport
leaving in December.
General Weston has been slightly i'll
during a period of several months, but
has bravely remained at his post in
the hope that he would be able to serve
out the period of his assignment to the
division, which expires in June, 1903.
It is expected that he will consult
physicians, and, unless they hold out
the hope of an early recovery, will
Immediately make application to the
department for relief.

in this city, and the select gathering of
musical and literary people present was

COMPOSITION.
The life of Lincoln affords an excellent
subject for the symphonic writer, and
Mr.. Pratt has made much of 1t. With
judicious use OF popular American
melodies of Lncoln's day. he has COM
bined his own inspirations. and the whole
is presented in form which betokens the
experienced musician.
To those to whom the American melo-
dies do not particularly appeal there is
much besides to interest them in Mr..
Pratt's historical and memorial work.

FLEES IN TERROR FROM GHOST
FALLS CHURCH RESIDENT HAS

Decides to Hereafter Garry a Ian

A certain colored individual in the
neighborhood of Falls Church Will re-
Quire about three coats of tar paint In
order to have his normal color restored.
Physicians are not attending him, but he
almost furnished job for the coroner
Christmas eve.
The hoy" in question is employed in a
store in the village and going home at
night passes a cemetery that lies to the
east Of the village He is not supersti-
tious, but Christmas eve before he started
home folks in the store commenced dis
cussing ghosts, and somebody remarked
casually that the spooks were liable to
get the boy some night as he was
moving past the graveyard. That Gene
terry does not enjoy very savory repu-
tation with the colored population, and
the colored boy was little nervous when
he started home
Dark and Stormy Night.
1t was unusually dark early the eve of
Christmas. Heavy snow had fallen just
before, had melted and frozen and melted
and frozen again till there was a crust,
and the mantle Of white made the whole
country look ghostly Enough at night
and brought out forms dimly even in the
starlight.
The boy started home as usual. but the
hn1sh or his journey was not regular by
any means. He had proceeded half way
past the graveyard when he paused,
thinking he heard q noise behind him
There was nothing, however, and though
the graveyard and the pines within looked
pale everything was silent and orthodox

He started again at quicker pace, but
with Whirr and a skitter over the crust
In his rear something started after him.
This was too much for the boys nerves,
and With yell he bounded forward The
IHlng With patter leaped after him
Surpasses the Marathon.
There was no more yelling. Breath was
too precious to be wasted in that way
Eight inches of snow on the level with
a eight crust to boot does not aid sprint
ing, and there was every incentive to
sprint. Up hill and down dale rushed the
boy. with the pursuer bounding Just a
stride behind him. 1t was nearly mile
to his home. With final terrified Shrek
he fell across the threshold and tainted
His relatives appeared and picked him
up, for he was past moving unassisted
He was carried into the house to be re-
vfved.
But when they took him into the house
the Thing accompanied him. He had
wrapped his feet In sunny sacks before
starting from the store, binding the sacks

noise lie heard and naturally it stopped
when he halted.
The boy does not believe in ghosts any
more than he did, but he does not believe
in them any less. and when he goes home
now at night he not only carries a Ian
tern, but chooses a route other than
past the graveyard.
