MOVING STUNT BRINGS

1t is quiet, oh, so quiet. In the de-
partment of public works office. The
clerks fairly tip-toe around to prevent
breaking the unwonted stiffness.
And this blissful state OF affairs Is
to continue. Also the city hall ele-
vator conductors are wearing smiles
OF happiness and are carrying far few
er passengers.
And these two results because OF a
little moving around In the city hall.
The sidewalk division of the depart
ment Of public works has moved to
the fourth floor and the state free en-
ployment bureau has gone down to
the basement.
The sidewalk division is always a
center of turmoil because numerous
and angry citizens and citizenesses
come In to complain because they
have to build walks, or because their
neighbors do not have to, or because
they do not like the walks In the
neighborhood. This leads to much ar
gument and the other divisions Of the
department will miss the racket.
The free employment bureau has
drawn swarms of people who filled
the elevators to the exclusion of aid.

Splendid Tonic.

At the first sign of rheumatic pains
or backache, or a feeling OF being

saparilla; one ounce Toris Compound;
half pint high grade whiskey. Mix
them and shake well. Take d table
spoonful before each meal and at bed
time. The bottle must be well shaken

acid poisons from the blood and build
up the system to its normal healthful-
ness. The splendid effects will be-
come manifest after the first few

cases OF rheumatism are bound to
yield to this treatment.

THAW SUIT IS BEGUN.
Prisoners Wife Opens Action For An
 nulment of Marriage.

Prisoners Wife Opens Action For An
 nulment of Marriage. a
 New York, March 18.-Mrs. William Copley Thaw was served here with pa pers in which she is made a codefend- ant with her son, Harry K. Thaw, in the action instituted by the latter's wife, Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, to annul their marriage. As Harry Thaw is an inmate of an insane asylum, he is in the eyes of the law legally dead, and the next of kin becomes technically the actual defendant in the case.
 Service of papers was made on Har- ry Thaw in Matteawan Hospital For the Criminal Insane.
 It is denied by persons in position to know the facts that any financial set clement has been arranged definitely between the Thaw family and Evelyn Nesbit Thaw.
 Although Mrs. Thaw is suing to have her marriage with Harry K. Thaw an; nulled on the ground that he was in- sane at the time of the ceremony, she admitted that the real causes are quite different.
 What the true reasons are promise to be a mystery forever, for she will not discuss them. After making the follow. ing statement she begged to be ex. cused from further questioning:
 Despite the fact am using my hus band to have our marriage annulled on the ground that he was insane when the ceremony was performed, I am frank to admit that is not the true req son. What is prompting me in this vii remain a secret as long as I live, and never in my right sense will I utter 8 word. I am determined to carry the secret to the grave with me. Further than that, found my cause during the first trial. l, will remain mum in this matter forever"

THRONE OR BRIDE?
To Wed Miss Elkins, Abruzzi Must
 Renounce Right of Succession.

Renounce Right of Succession.
 Washington, March 1S.-The Duke ot the Abruzzi arrived here from Florida on the same train with Miss Katherine Elkins and her mother, who have been entertaining him in the south.
 At the Italian embassy a dinner was given in his honor, and the wife and daughter of West Virginia's senator were guests.
 The simultaneous arrival and the presence of the Elkinses at the exclu- sive embassy affair are taken as an al most positive confirmation of thea astory that an engagement exists between the dashing young first cousin of the king of Italy and the beautiful heiress to the Elkins millions. An announcement Is looked for very soon.
 And another announcement-that of the dukes renunciation of his right to succeed to the Italian throne, so that his marriage will not be morganatic- likewise is expected. It is reported here that he has already made the formal renunciation and is no longer an heir to kingshfp, preferring to be du duu QdVc HIS riage to the girl he loves clear and honest.
 Several circumstances tending to con- firm this report are pointed out in Washington. One is that no state func- tions are being given in his honor, as is the invariable case with a prince of royal family. Besides being a prince his title is Prince Luigi Amedeo of Savoy Aosta-he is an admiral of the Italian navy. He is on leave of ab- sence from his ship, the Regina Elena.
 An inquiry made at the embassy brought from Miss Elkins the reply, ''There is nothing to say tonight" which is different from her former de- nials that she was engaged to the duke.
 Washington is intensely pleased with this prospective match. Besides her beauty and wealth Miss Elkins is pos sessed of a charming personality and is an athletic, outdoor type of girl. The young duke did not need his royal blood to win for himself place Tn the world. He is famous as az arctic ex- plorer, a serious scientist, a mountain climber and a daring, adventurous young man who is ready to tackle any feat.

SHERIFF BROWN CHASED GEESE.
Well known officer of Oakland Had
Wild Goose Chase.

Sheriff Austin Brown, of Care tt
county, Maryland, arrived. here this
morning in quest OF a man named
Gaagy, who jumped a board bill at
Hutton. Md. and he was wired by tire
authorities here that the man had been
arrested here and would be produced on
the arrival OF the proper authorities.
When Mr.. Brown arrived in the 'city
this morning, however, he heard a
peculiar tiuttering much resembling a
flock Of wild geese on the wind and
soon became aware of the fact-that he
was chasing them, as the authorities
here had arrested the wrong man, one
that was wanted in Elkins instead of
Oakland, and he returned to Oakland
this afternoon without his man, which
is very unusual occurrence for him as
there is not a more successful officer IN
Western Maryland than Sheriff Brown.
Mr.. Brown is one Of Oakland's lead
ng citizens and is now serving his
second term as sheriff of the MARYLAND
unity. He was first elected t. the
position back in 1896 and seryedl2 sue
