He Is the Poor Fellow Who Always
Misses His Chance.
The schenihl is easier to understand
than to define. Many years ago a gath
ering of the wits at the Maccabaeus
endeavored to come to a decision as to
the real definition Of a schemihl. They
could not agree as to the origin Of
the word. and they found it equally
hard to define what exactly schemihl
is. The nearest shot, says the Jewish
Chronicle of London, was that Of Stu
art NJ. Samuel, NJ. P, who said that
he could tell a story that would illus
trate exactly what was meant by the
term. There was poor man who
could not find anything to do. What
ever he tried failed, and when he
sought employment he could not OBJ
tain it Day after day he sat (schemih-
like on bench in the public gardens
waiting for some one to offer him
work, but the offer never came. For
a whole year he sat thus each day IN
til at last he attracted the attention of
a merchant who said to himself: AZ
want some one at my warehouse, and
l think l shall offer the job to that
poor man who is always sitting so pa
tiently and wistfully as though he is
looking for employment Tomorrow
I shall speak to him. The morrow
came. and the poor man started for his
usual walk to his usual seat. AS, how
ever, he was leaving his house he said
to his wife: MY dear, have been out
like this for a whole year, and moth
ing has ever come Of it Today think
1 shall stay at home" And he did

CLEVELAND WILL
SOON Be WELL
Ex-preSident Is Removed to
His Home in Prince
ton.
GOES IN AN AUTOMOBILE.
HE WALKED FROM HIS SICK
CHAMBER TO THE AUTOMO-
BILE WITH A CANE BUT WAS
ACCOMPANIED BY DOCTORS.

Lakewood, n. J., June 1.-Looking
fully as we'll as when he came here
three months ago, former President
Grover Cleveland, leaning heavily on
q cane, came from his room in the
Lakewood Hotel Sunday afternoon
walked down stairs unaided, entered
the big auto belonging to John Hays
Hammond and left for Princeton.
Mrs. Cleveland and DIR. G.. Rowell
Lockwood, one Of the physicians who
have been constantly in attendance on
the patient, accompanied them, as well
as the trained nurse, who has been
with him since he first came here.
When he was seen sitting up in his
room in the hotel on Wednesday after
noon, Mr.. Clevelands departure began
to be looked for.
When Mr.. Cleveland came down
stairs he greeted all of the hotel en-
ploys who have remained here since
the house closed six weeks, ago, thank
ing Manager N. c. Becker and the en-
gineer of the hotel for all they had
done to make his stay comfortable.
After an impromptu reception on the
hotel porch with a number of his
friends in the cottage colony, who had
been quietly informed of his leaving,
Mr.. Cleveland entered the car for the
slow run to Princeton, which was
made in three hours.
Manager Becker stated last night
that Mr.. Cleveland appeared to walk
just as sprightly and we'll as when he
arrived here early in march. He said
that Mrs Cleveland had returned from
Tamworth, N. H, where she took the
children. Mr.. Becker said that it was
now planned to take Mr.. Cleveland to
Tamworth within a few days.
Arrives in Princeton.
Trenton, NJ j., June 1.-Grover
Cleveland arrived at his home in
Princeton at o'clock last evening
He stood the journey we'll. and inquiry
at his residence last night elected the
information that he had suffered no
Inconvenience and was resting COM
fortably. 1t was also said that Mr.
Cleveland had recovered from his re-
cent serious illness to such an extent
that his complete restoration to health

MATTEAWAN HO N {.
ThaW viii Have to Spend His
Insane Days in That
Asylum.
NO TRANSFER TO BE MADE.

Albany, \. Y, June Harry Thaw
will be returned TO the Matteawan
State Hospital and will nor be trans
ferred TO some other state insane hos
pital. Dr. Albert W. Ferris. chairman
of the state lunacy commission. has
declared.
The state commission has supervis
ion over the state hospitals and the
criminal insane and only through its
consent could a transfer be made.
Failing to secure Thaw's release in
the habeas corpus proceedings, efforts
are being made TO have him trans
ferred. DR. Ferris believes that
Thaw's case is incurable and there is
no telling when ne may have an out
break.
Dr. Ferris holds that the commits
sion cannot be mandamused to allow
the transfer of a patient through the
sllillful working of the insanity law
This provision, he says, has been
passed on by the courts and held TO
be constitutional. The only way a re
lease can be secured is through ha-
beas corpus proceedings and then the
burden of proof of establishing the
sanity of a patient rests on the appli-
cant.
The court having decided against
Thaw he must be returned to the in
stitution, Ferris contends. To permit
the transfer Of Thaw to the Pough-
keepsie State Hospital would be prac-
tically releasing him, as DR.. Pilgrim,
the superintendent of the institution,
testified at the recent proceedings that
Thaw was sane.

Facing the Enemy.

Two veterans were in the habit Of
"jollying' each other In regard to
lack Of valor on the field of battle.
Why" said the one, lat the very
first engagement, when the order was
given to retreat, you were so scared
that you threw your arms away ana
ran for dear life"
Nonsense" replied the other. THAT
was the time | got the three flesh
wounds in the chest. If I'd been run
ming away, as you claim. l would have
been shot in the back"
'Oh, no, you wouldn't" returned his
friend. The reason you got shot in
the chest was because you took to the
river and were trying to get away In a
rowboat"

The Story Of Violin That Was

After the Lucky Baldwin theater and

there were nine feet of water in the
basement. where the instruments Of
the orchestra were stored. When a lit
tie of it had been pumped out, August
Hinrichs. leader of the orchestra. hired

1t was wrecked-water soaked, warp

eight pieces. The hot water had soak

had fallen away from its neighbor. be-

In when repairs had been done. To all
appearance the thing was smashed be-

Nevertheless Herman Muller. a local
violin repairer, who knew and loved
the old fiddle, took 1t in hand. Twice
he carefully joined the time darkened
pieces of wood. Twice he decided that
the Anati would not do.
So once more he soaked the sixty
eight bits of wood apart Then he
carefully modelled out Of clay an arch

kept the bits of wood bound to 1t until
they had gained the proper shape.
Once more he put the bits Of wood
together. Then for FIVE weeks more he
patiently vanished and polished the
more than 200 year old fiddle until it
shone. Then Hinrichs once more drew
his bow across the vibrating strings,
and the violin spoke. 1t sank, wept,

CRIME ON SUNDAY
Wisconsin Man Shoots His
SWeetheart'S Mother
In Church.
HE WANTED TO MARRY.

Oakfeld, Wis, June l. Brooding
for five years over her refusal to per
nit him 10 marry her daughter. Miss
Grace Orvis. Grant Poole. aged 50.
shot and killed Mrs. f. H. Orvis at the
conclusion of services in the Methodist
Church in this place, sunday
The congregation. numbering sever
al hundred, was just filing out OF the
church when the tragedy occurred
Poole had attended services, and after
the benedictiOn had been pronounced
waited in his pew till Mrs, Orvis
passed down the aisle. Then follow
ing her to the vestibule. he fred ;hree
shots at her from behind, one of
which took effect, piercing her heart
and causing instant death.
Taking advantage of the pande-
monium which followed. the assassin
escaped to the woods which skirt the
village, but at late hour Sunday
Lodge.
1t is believed Poole intended TO kill
the daughter as well as the mother,
as it was their custom to attend ser
vices Sunday morning together. Miss
Orvis, however, had gone to Fon du
Lac to visit friends, and TO this she
doubtless owes her life.
Mrs. Orvis was daughter of Abel
Bristol, a banker and one of the
wealthiest residents of the county,
while the daughter. who was the OBJ
ject of Poole's attention. was book
keeper in the bank of Oakfield. The
family is one of the most prominent
in the county. 1t is believed that the
cooler heads will control, although
lynching threats are being made.

Madison, WIS. There had been eight
physicians OIL this case and it got so
extreme that he finally had one of the
last symptoms. namely. failing eye
sight. In January, 1907, the DOCTORS add
mitted that nothing further could be
done, and they sent him to Eureka
Springs Arkansas. He continued to
get worse, the dropsy finally reaching
the stomach, heart and lungs. AT one
time tests showed aibumen as high

He learned5of Fulton's Renal Com
pound and began to take 1t July g.
Dropsy began slowly to decline and the
albuinen dropped to forty. then to
twenty, then to ten, and finally TO two
per cent in May, 1905.

ploynnent and is dcvoting full time to
his business.
