Portsmouth n. H.. Feb. 29.-The
scenes Of the era when the people OF
New England stoned witches We're re-
enacted here today when thousand
men, women aud children mobbed
Glacia Gala and later stoned the
office In which she was sitting in con-
ference with her attorney, John NJ.
Bartlett.
She remained in the Office three
hours. During that time the mob
grew larger and larger. They shouted
and made cat calls. Growing more
impatient they began 70 throw snow
balls and pieces of ice against the
windows. Finally it became neces-
sary TO call the police to dispense the
crowd as 1t was feared that Miss
Gala would suffer bodily injury when
she came out.
Miss Gala had an appointment with
Ter attorney at 2:30 o'clock. but she
failed to appear. Two hours later
while thousand men and women
waited outside the building to see her
she drove from her Bayside home,
put up her team in a stable and
walked through side street TO the
building in which her lawyer had his
effice.
Police Services Needed.
The crowd saw her coming and sur
rounded her. many shouting insults
and she was utterly unable to reach
her destination just across the street.
Finally the police were called and
forced way for her through the
crowd.
For long time the attorneys client
was closeted with him in an inner
office. while the outer room and nall
way were filled with newspaper men
end women and swarm OF photog'
iaphers. Miss Gala was in confer
enee with her attorney nearly three
hours. When she emerged the police
were again ordered to scatter the
crowds.
Returning to her mothers home she
told reporter that she had not seen
the Baroness Won Orendorf since 1894.
Brother Never Had Insurance.
"Who gave you your first music
lesson? Was 1t Miss Josehpine Truce
YES. God bless her. How | would
Hike to sc her now
There is a report that you wanted
to have this death of your brother
come ont as murder in order to obtain
his life in surance."
THAT Is an absolute lie. My brother
never carried one cent of insurance.
The birth records of George A.
Csrkins and Glacia Gala In city hall
are rather conflicting and while
Georges birth record gives his
mothers birthplace as Portsmouth,
Giacia Calais birth record shows that
her mothers birthplace as Epping.

It appears on the enrolment that
Glacia Gala was not registered among
the births in the city nall up to 1880,
when no doubt she was contemplating
marriage and called there for a birth
certificate. Finding her name was
not on the books, she then gave 1t to
the city clerk as follows:

A meeting of the Board OF Local I'M
proyements was held yesterday after

den 4 Leek, to consider the letting
OF contracts for paving Washington

Much OF the committees time was
taken UP In discussing details with
Mr.. Williams whose bid on Washing
ton avenue has ben accepted. The
date for beginning work was fixed at
not later than April ] and for com
pleting 1t Nov. /. Mr.. Williams says
he expects to begin sooner than April
/. in fact at very early date this
month. A penalty of $40 per day was
agreed to for failure to complete the
work Nov. l.
The question of a bond Of 80 per
cent of the work. about $4,000, was
gone into. The board was not pre-
sented. some of of the formalities to.
ward its execution not having been
completed; and as Attorney Leek in
sisted that the contract could not be
signed unless the bond was in the
hands of the board, the meeting was
adjourned till Monday afternoon.

Gil chamber tomorrow morning to re.
ceive bids on filling all cross streets
between Twenty-frst and Twenty
eighth STREETS. excepting Twentyfourth
street and West Twenty-fourth

READY TO HAIL MARS.

Nikola Tesla announces that
with the cooperation of power
producing companies at. Niaga-
ra Falls, he is preparing to hail
Mars with Niagara's voice. A
way has been found at last for
transmitting a wireless message
across the gulf, varying from
100000 to 100000 miles,
which separates this earth from
Mars.
Once that has been accomplish
ed and Mars, which is consider
ably elder and supposedly more
advanced in science than we,
has acknowledged the receipt of
our signal and sent back flash
for flash, it will remain to devise
and interplanetary code through
the medium of which the scien-
fists of this world and of Mars
will be able to understand what
eachis saying to the other.
Mr.. Tesla has been quickly
working for several years on a
wireless power plant capable of.
transmitting 10000 horse power
to any part of the world or to
any of our neighboring planets.
The mere matter of distance be-
tween dispatching and receiving
points is no object whatever,
Wireless power, Mr.. Tesla says,
may be sent, one million or more
miles just as easily as one mile.
Several of the electric power
companies with immense gener-
ating plants at Niagara Falls
have agreed to cooperate with
Mr.. Tesla in an effort to reach
Mars by wireless.

BOB TAYLOR ON GREED FOR GOLD

''The lust for gold and the
hunger for power have ridden
rough shod over liberty and law
and hung their banners over ev-
cry capital and every mart. The
jingle of gold sounds even in the
laughter of modern society, and
the eyes of the church are jaun-
diced with it. We have become
a nation of gold worshippers. I
fear that if the American people
in the present spirit were trans
planted to the HEAVIER above they
would tear up the golden streets
in three hours and levy a tax on
the harps of the angels for the
benefit of American industry"
Thus spoke United States Sem
ator Robt. L. Taylor, of Tonnes
see, in a speech on Greed for
Gold," at the third annual din
ner Of the Tennessee society in
New York Saturday night.
