The ability of a clever reporter to

Gently illustrated by one of Mr..

of "a story concerning Mrs. Eva niger

Reading the headlines and introduc~
tory paragraphs, one gathered the i'm

ism and does not know that there are
spirits. Alleged messages from Col
onel Ingersoll. frequently announced
by mediums, she looks upon as impos-
lures.
Gaping the climax of absurdity, the
newspaper story quotes what purports
to be an extract from Colonel lnger-
soils grafton at his brothers grave,
as follows: What awaits us after
death? Whether it be humiliation or
Immortality, we can speak with no
certainty"
What Colonel Ingersoll really sale
was something like this:
Life is narrow vale between the
cold and barren peaks of two eterni
ties. We strive in vain to look be
yond the heights We cry aloud, bu
the only answer is the echo Of on
wailing cry. But in the night o
death Hope sees a star and listening

SAVED JEWELS AT A FIRE
Only to Lose Them Again-Thieves May

Aroused by the barking of pet dog Mrs.
John j. Williams Of 214l, Fifth avenue, the
wife of mechanical engineer In the Ord
nance Department of the Brooklyn navy
yard, awoke from nap yesterday after
noon to find the upper hallway of her house
filed with smoke. -- ....
Mrs. Williams found that the flames had
gained considerable headway in the room
of her niece. Miss Nellie Sinnott on the
third floor. Miss Sinnott was out for
walk, and remembering that she had some
valuable jewelry in the drawer of a dresser
in the room Mrs. Williams fought her way
through the smoke and got it. Then she
went to her own room and securing her
Jewelry made her way to the lower floor.
BY that time tie firemen had arrived
They made short work OF the blaze, but
after it was all over Mrs. Williams could
not find her niece's jewelry and part of
her own. A gold watch and two diamond
rings We're missing from Miss Sinnott's
collection and Mrs. Williams had lost two
diamond rings and brooch.
Mrs. Williams said that she could not
remember what she had done with the
jewelry after starting down stairs. She
thought that she might have dropped it
on the stairs. She said that several men
not in uniform entered the house with the
firemen and she believed that the rings
and watch might have been stolen. The
missing jewelry is valued at 81 500. The
damage done by the fire is estimated at
$500. Miss Sinnott left her window open
when she went out and the curtains were
