THE DOOMED SIXTY.
Somewhere in New York Are Sixty People Who VIII Soon be Murdered.

Somewhere on Manhattan Island or in the Bronx" writes William Inglis in the current number of Harper's Weekly, there are walking about at this moment sixty men and women who will be murdered before the end of next year. The victims will be of all classes of society of ignorance or learning, of coarseness or refinement.
 Month In, month out, five persons are slain every thirty days in New York. Sometimes more than that are taken; seldom, if ever, fewer than i've"
 These figures are based upon the records of 'homicldes collected and tabulated by District Attorney Jerome of New York county. Just as pru- dent farmer, knowing the probable output of his land during the coming year, would endeavor to provide enough men and horses and machln- cry to handle it, so the district att0r- ney is seeking to increase his office force in order to keep pace with the increase of population and consequent increase of crime,
 "The complete budget of crime ex- pected in 1909 by the district attor- ney" the author writes Ifs full of ln- terost He will probably dispose of 5000 criminal cases in all, Of these, sixty will be homicides, 1,750 burglar tes, 42O highway robberies and 1,25O assaults

AROUND THE WORLD
Record for the Encircling Trip Now Held by Colonel
 Campbell.
LESS THAN F0RTY-0NE DAYS
He Could Have Made It In Less Had He Not Missed an Impor-
 tant Train.

Ever since Jules Verne published his Around the World fin Eighty Days" there has been wide public interest in the time required to clrcumnavigate Mother Earth. Unquestlonably 1t could not have been done in eighty days at the time of the great novelist's story, says the Metropolitan Magazine But with Improvements in railway and steamboat routes such trip became possible about twenty years ago. Nell He Bly, travelling for the New York World, cut the pace in 1890 to seventy two days, and the eccentric George Francis Train, shortly afterward, go- ing in an opposite direction, was able to make 1t In slXty-seven and q half days. It has not been figured that there are several routes by which a traveller may make the grand circuit in iron forty tD forty-tEn days but the best performance Is that ot Lieutenant Colonel Burnley Campbell, who clrced the globe In the early summer of last
  year, in four and half hours less than forty-one days He would have made it in forty even but for missing one train by a close margin Ills itinerary was Liverpool to Quebec seven days; Quebec-Vanc6uver, by Canadian -Paci- ic Transcontinenta mall train, eight and half days; Vancouvcr-Yo Yokohama, by Canadian Pacific steamer seven days; Yokohama-V -Vladlvostock, by Jap anese steamer, four and a half days; Vladivostock-M Moscow, by Transsiberlar railway eleven days; Moscow London. three days. II is obvious that the Can. adian railways were particularly slow. but the route affords shorter steam boat travel on the Pacific than the New York and San Francisco route.

ENDURANCE TESTS AT VALE.

Karl Mann, who distinguished him self by winning the walking match from Berlin to Dresden in 1902, in which the alleged superior endurance of veRetarlans seemed to be demon strated, presented himself at Yale col- lege the other day and was invited to test his endurance upon the ergograph devised by Prof. Irving Fisher.
 An ordinary man of fair muscular equipment can lift weight in this machine from thirty to sixty times without intermlsslon. Before Horace Fletcher tried his endurance the rec ord stood at 175. MT. Fletcher raised 1t to $50. Karl Mann lifted the weight 6S7 times and was not exhausted when he stopped He is what the Germans call a lacto-veEetarian
 A two-mile runner at Yale who had adopted MT. Fletcher's rules of masti- cation and incidentally reduced his proteid intake, found after three months that his endurance, as meas ured by the ergograph, had increased 65 per cent, while his speed remained the same--From American Health.

PHILADELPHIA, June 12.-"I have
fully concluded hat it is impossible for
Mr.. Gould and myself to live together
in peace and harmony, and when one
finds that such a state of affairs exists
it is best for the parties to SEPARATE -
said Mrs. Frank Gould today. Mrs.
Gould has brought an action for sepa-
ration, renewing the suit against her
husband which was dropped last De-
cember.
Beyond this, Mrs. Gould said she did
not care to discuss the suit. She is at
the country place of Mr.. and Mrs.
George Gould. Elkins Park. Her chill
dren are with their grandmother in
New York.
II am SO tired of the notoriety and
trouble incident to my suit that 1 have
come over here to be quiet. 1 have
come to the conclusion that when one
wants to get a separation in New York
she can get no peace outside of Mat
teawan. Go to my lawyer, Henry l..
Sprague, of New York, and he will tell
you all the details

been served with papers Tuesday.

will harm her. Only experience can

Rush was known by almost every
