TIP ON WEATHER TANNING.
Agree With It Instead of Fighting
and It'll Be Friendly.

i-Ipplncott
What great misfortune this is, the
habit of considering the Weather,-of
thinking that we must consider the
weather. 1t is largely due is it not, to
clothes? No mention is made of rain in
the Garden of Eden; but we must not,
therefore, contend that rain was dis
agreeable and omitted: we must recollect
that Adam and Eve did not need to con-
slider rain; Furthermore, in blessed igno-
rance, they did not know that it was any
thing to he considered.
To mind the rain no more than the May
sunshine. but to plunge into it and let the
drops pelt as they will; to accent snow
without a thought of discomfort but,
rather, to enjoy the thronging presence of
it; to pursue ones daily stint regardless
of whether the sky be dun or blue-this
is a state which we, especially Of the
cities, long. long have lost.
We regain it, some of us, in the wilder
ness camp where We hunt, or fish, if the
day be dark or if the day be bright. And
where we find that the dash of the soft
rain on ones face is not death, after all;
that wetnesS and dryness are merely rela-
tive terms.
All the centuries of fussing and Tuning
with the weather have not affected the
weather one particle: 1t still rains and
SHOWS, and seets, and blows. just as die
tated by circumstances. Therefore. what s
the use? Are your puny diatribes. or
mine of any greater potency than those
of others gone before? Evidently not; ac-
cordingly try the plan of being friendly
with the weather-of agreeing with it in
stead of fighting it-and, pom my word,
presently it will he agreeing with you.

ATTELL GOES DOWN
BEFORE FRED WELSH

LOS ANGELES, Cal. November oG.-
Abe Attcll the fast and defeated feath-
erWeisht champion of the world, met
more than his match last night in Fred
die Welsh. the English lightweight cham
pion
Welsh showed himself to he q clever
man His boxing. foo.work, general
ship and defensive tactics were superb.
At ell never had a chance from the b.
ginning of the fight to the finish. The
doughty little champion seemingly lacked
confidence. his blows lacked vigor and
his generalship was not what it has been.
While he fought bravely on the de-
fensive and rallied frequently against the
lead of his opponent, he was not able to
make a suffic !ent showing at any time 10
place the result of the fight In doubt.
Welsh led with both hands with UNI
erring precision.
There was much infightinS and in this
a,one did At.e!l show to advantage.
Attell said after the fight that lie had
given away too much weight to his OPP
ponent. He also alleged that an injury to
his hand received in ira ming interfered
with his work. The betting was ten 10
eight on Attell, who lost the decision at
the end of the fifteenth round.

KILLING SOLVED
SteinheiI's Widow Breaks
Down; Says Lover Did It.
ExONERATES ACCUSED MAN
Son of Servant Murdered Mother
and Husband, She Says.
ROBBERY WAS ONLY A SHAM
Stirs Up Forgotten Mystery in Hope
to Vindicate Herself to Another
Man, She Declares.

PARIS, November 26.-The Steinheil
murder case has entered upon a sensa-
tional stage and appears to be approach
ing solution as result of the testimony
of jeweler. who came forward yester-
day and announced that Nine. Steinheil,
on June II last, brought a pearl ring to
him to be unset.
Nine. Steinheil admitted later that she
put the pearl in a pocketbook belonging
to Remy Couillaud, who was NJ. Stein
heils man servant. 1t was the discovery
of the pearl In Couillaud's pocketbook
days ago. on charge of having muir
dered Adolphe Steinheil and Mime. Japy
last May.
Nine. Stefnheil yesterday declared that
Couillaud was innocent Then, pressed
for an explanation. she broke down and
admitted she knew the murderer. He
was the son of one of the servants, and
she mentioned name.
Slew When Discovered.
He came to the Steinheil house, believ-
ing the family was absent. He bound her
and killed her husband and her mother,
who had been awakened by the noise.
He threatened. according to Nine.
Steinheil's story, that if she disclosed his
name he would say she was an accom-
plice and had melted him to come and
kill her husband. The man, she said, had
terroriZed her ever since.
The burglary was a sham. The muir
derer only took money while she herself
hid the jewels in their Bellevue villa.
Later, fearing they would be found by
the police. she took them to a jeweler
and had them unset and the mountings
melted.
She promised she would go to mags-
trate today and reveal all.
Asked why she had stirred up the af-
fair when it had practically been for
gotten, Nine Steinhel made the enig-
NAUTICAL reply:
Because l hoped to completely justify
myself in the mind of one whom 1 now
name. whose love l lost, and of whom l
must never more think.
Story Of Crime.
Adolphe Stenhei was a we'll known
French portrait painter and the grand
nephew of Meissonier. He and his moth
er-in-law, Nine Japy, were found stran-
gled to death in the home of the artist in
Rue de Vanguard on the morning of
May 81.
Nine. Steinheil, who was found gagged
and tied to a bed said the crimes were
committed by three men and a woman.
The house was ranSacked, and 81 800 in
money and jewels valued at $1,000 were
missing.
Several arrests have been made in con-
nection with the case. For a long time
the Paris police could make nothing out
of the mystery, which promised 10 be

Transit Facilities in Paris.


Getting about Paris is sort of joyous
progress. There are so many ways of
doing it. Not all of them are good But
the worst arc much more comfort able

quirements. But TO see Paris one should
patroniZe the buses, both horse and motor,
ana the two-story tdoubie-iecker) tram
cars. If one would make a list of the
public conveyance routes, and take a trip
over each he would cover good deal of
Paris and sec some extremely interesting
sections to which the tourist seldom pen
etrates. Such a list would include the
narrow. busy. darling boats that shear
through Seine water like pickerel. going
about their swift concern of passenger
traffic.
