STRAY TOPICS FROM LITTLE
OLD NEW YORK

| The incredibly brutal and fiendish
slaughter of two little children and
the attempt to kill third by some
monster in human form at Utica, in
| this state, has aroused the most in
tense feeling in New York. There
seems to be little doubt that the
crime was committed by some Italian
blackmailer either for the purpose of
| intimidating the parents of the chill
! dren or to take revenge upon them
for some actual or imaginery Offense.
The sentiment is gaining ground that
something must be done without de-
lay to put stop to the outrages di-
rectly or indirectly attributed to a
band of Italian criminals which seem
to in fest New York and its vicinity.
There Is every reason to believe that
the misdeeds of the gang of Italian
blackmailers are far more numerous
than suspected by the public, and
even by the police authorities and
that the selfisness and cowardice of
the victims, which keeps them from
giving truthful information to the
police, is altogether responsible for
the failure of the authorities to cap
ture and properly dispose of the
criminals.
AS was to be expected Ann O'Delia
Diss Debar the notorious founder Of
new sects, has at last reached her
proper place. She has gone on the
vaudeville state and, it is hoped. will
stay there She evidently did not
find the founding of new sects of oc-
cultism, or whatever she may call it
just now, a profitable business. Her
latest venture in this line, in New
York, failed because of the publicity
given to Delia's antecedents by the
daily papers. O'Delia has expensive
tastes, but her occult" powers. un.
fortunately, do not enable her to
produce dollars out of nothing; she
needs at least suckers for that.
There was nothing left to her but the
vaudeville stage and she did not hes
itate to grasp the chance when it was
offered to her.
While O'Delia is travelling over the
circuit. lecturing to vaudeville crowds
about the charms of her latest special
brand of religion. the poor deluded
women in charge of the School Of
Mahatmas" in New York are slowly
starving. David Livingston Mackay,
the so-called spiritual son of Ann
O'Delia Diss Debar. occasionally re-

Surrogate Thomas gave decision
the other day which will undoubted-
ly greatly relieve the minds of many
persons who are in the unfortunate
position of having a large number of
creditors but no assets to speak Of.
The decision was given in the case Of
a man who died, leaving debts to the
amount of nearly $500 but no assets
excepting a burial lot in the Jewish
cemetery in which he was buried. His
creditors attempted to seize the lot
with view of converting it into cash
but Surrogate Thomas decided that
the lot was exempt so long as it was
used for burial purposes.
The season at Coney Island has

New York. Sept. 25.-The cOntrO-
versy between Peary and Cook, of
which a vast majority of the people
are more than tired, may be carried
into a sphere already supercharged
with controversies of all kinds, from
mere minor squabbles as to certain
details of the arrangements to actual
appeals to the mighty powers of the
law. 1t threatens to play part in
the Fulton-Hudson celebration near
at hand. 1t had been planned to have
Peary and his whole arctic outfit as
one of the features of the grand
naval pageants and to give DR.. Cook
also a place in the parade. But the
Belligerent Pcary does not approve
of this scheme and is not willing to
divide honors. He wants everything
or nothing and has threatened to
balk, should DR.. Cook be allowed TO
take part in the pageant.
1t is still doubtful what the final
solution of the problem will be, but
there is a growing sentiment in favor
of the plan to keep both claimants
out of the pageant. So far neither
one of them has given tangible proof
of his claims and, until the matter
has been finally adjudicated by some
competent tribunal the world is justi-
fled in looking upon both claimants
with suspicion. To believe one and
doubt the other would be gross pre-
judice and unwarranted injustice, as
some of the members of the commit
tee maintain, who favor the plan of
excluding both Peary and Cook from
participation in the parade.
1t is a rather peculiar coincidence
Or perhaps not coincidence at all
that, just as this time, when New
York is on the eve of great celebra-
ton in honor of Henry Hudson, cred
tied with being the discoverer and
explorer of the Hudson river, the
Italians of this city should take the
first official steps for the erection of
a monument in honor of Giovanni da
VerraZZano, the Italian explorer,
who, according to trustworthy evil
dence, discovered the mouth and
lower part of the Hudson river, then
still unnamed. long before the Half
Moon" anchored off Staten island.
The site chosen for the monument is
in Battery park, near the Aquarium,
one of the finest locations for a me-
mortal to the discoverer of the Hud-
son.

report by citizens committee, APP
pointed by Mayor Pratt, that the or

the best interests of the city of Spo-
kane, 30 young men armed with Pc
titiOns made a whirlwind campaign
in the Third ward for the recall of
z. V. Lambert, president of the city
council. Four hundred signatures
were secured. The charge is that
Lambert has been unfaithful to his
duties and that he is not competent
to fill the Office. 1t is also alleged
that he introduced woolfoot, moon
light and backstairs methods into
the council and that he does not deny
belonging to the order under the
ban. Mr.. Lambert lays emphasis on
the statement that the 'recallers"
are acting in the interest of politics
and not principles and declares he
will be a candidate for reelection
The ward is strongly republican,
while Mayor Pratt, a democrat, was
elected on reform ticket The fac
ton back of the recall will also pre-
sent a candidate.

Its Destruction Came From q DeluG0
OF Lava Water. ,
Herculaneum, in Italy, is one of those
ancient cities which have not only been
buried, but actually forgotten, for
ages. The town, supposed to be Of
Etruscan origin, lies on the Campanian
plain at the foot of it's destroyer, We
suvius, almost midway between Ma
pies and Pompeii.
What caused the catastrophe Of the
year 70 A. D.? Biologists have come
to the help Of the archaeologists, and
it is now held that the destruction of
Herculaneum was somewhat different
from that Of Pompeii, although Pom
peii was also covered and buried and
the general effects were the same in
both instances. In the case of Pom.
peii the city was overwhelmed by the
shower of small stones from the vol.
cano and the subsequent rain of ashes,
but Herculaneum seems to have been
deluged with water lava" and far
fewer people were able to make their
escape from the city than from Pom
peii.
