Gould NOT saw
HIS Way OUT
Prisoner Who Said he ES.
capped by Saving the Win
dow Bars Fails TO Do Il
AGAIN in q Test Trial

New York, N. Y, March 17.-After
sixteen hours spent in saving two of
the seven-eighths inch bars of his
CELL. with improvised saws, made of
knicked table knives, Francis Louis
Boyssande, lion tanner, who was
set to the task of making an official
attempt to escape from the detention
prison at Ellis Island, tonight gave
up the attempt.
Boyssande last August effected a
'eal escape from the same cell with
the connivance, immigration Com
missioner Wachern thinks, OF some of
the keepers. Upon being apprehend-
ed a few days ago, however, he main
tanned that no one had assisted him
and that it was by saving the bars
of his cell 1919 hours with table
knives that he had succeeded in gain
ing his freedom.
It was to prove, if possible, the
truth of this assertion that Boyssande
was made to undergo the test which
has just failed.
Had he succeeded, Commissioner
Watchern had promised to intercede
for him at Washington.

the humane educational movement in
the United States, died here today,
aged Sc years. He had been in fall

himself in humane work for dumb
animals, and established the publica.

chosen life work. In one year he had

rhs March Of the Caravan.

The March Of the Caravan.
Perhaps the weirdest and most I'm
pressive Of the many unwonted men,
cries that the traveller carries away
with him from travel In the east Is
the recollection Of the camel caravans
which he has encountered at night
Out OF the black darkness is heard the
distant boom of a heavy bell. Mourn
fully and with perfect regularity Of
iteration it sounds, gradually swelling
nearer and louder and perhaps min
Cling with the tones Of smaller bells
signaling the rear guard Of the same
caravan. The big bell is the insignia
and alarm Of the leading camel alone.
But, nearer and louder as the sound
becomes, not another sound and not
visible object appears to accompany
it. Suddenly and without the slight
est warning there looms out of the
darkness, like the apparition Of a
phantom ship, the form Of the captain
of the caravan. His spongy tread
sounds softly on the smooth sand, and
like a great string Of linked ghouls the
silent procession stalks by and Is swal-
lowed up in the night.-"Persia and
the Persian Question"

tempted to escape, waereupon Col
onel Esgurra, in command of the es-
cort, shot and killed him.
La Vastida was recently dismissed
from the rural guard. He served
with distinction in the Cuban war of
independence, and has made friends
in Santa Clara province, by whom
the summary killing doubtless will
be bitterly resented.
According to an Official statement
given out at the palace, La Vastida
started the conspiracy against the
government for the purpose of secur-
ing political. favors by threats. 1t
Is alleged that Cortes was irritated
because he did not receive COM
mission in the army, and that La
Vastida induced him to take the field
by representations that by doing so
he would alarm the government and
create so great danger Of another
American Intervention that his de-
mand would be instantly granted.
The government claims to have been
informed of the conspiracy several
weeks ago, and President Gomez
then fully determined to make a
striking example of the leaders.
All other sections of the island
show complete tranquility, and the
government is satisfied that the
vueltas affair is purely spasmodic.
Local stocks on the Havana ex-
change again declined heavily today,
and the trading was practically at a
standstill. Business interests gener-
ally deplore the outbreak, which,
while possibly unimportant in itself,
has given a severe blow to public
confidence.

Couldn't Fool Him.

A Morris River oysterman attended
q band contest one winter night In
Morris River. The contestants blew
into their great horns rs II to burst
their lungs. The drummers banged
their drums with might and main.
Cheeks were red and round like ap-
pies. Eyes almost started from their
sockets. The oysterman enjoyed 1t
all. But his attention was distracted
BY deaf old gentleman who IN the
pianissimo passages put large silver
ear trumpet to his ear. Whenever he
did this the oystermau sneered. And
at last his honest hatred Of anything
approaching sham overcame the mans
reserve. he elbowed his way to the
deaf old gentleman and said:
"Look here; that don't 80 here. Ev-
erybody knows you can't play that
with your ear. Put it away, mister.
You can't fool us."-Los Angeles Times.

The toys of the French revolution
period were characteristic Of that ter
rible time. There are tops whose
shadows cast the profile portraits Of
Louis XVI. and Marie Antoinette.
These are turned in lockwood aud are
indeed interesting "reminiscences of
toys with the impress of history. The
children of the revolution had their
tiny Phrygian caps and danced the
horrible csrmagnoles in their play.
Little models Of the guillotine were
made to "v'ork," and the bodies of
pigs with heads of Louis XVI. were
decapitated. Models Of the Bastille
were popular. Playing cards with fe-
ures Of revolutionary heroes were
made when kings, queens and aristo-
cratic knaves were taboo.-From '"Toys
of Other Days." by Mrs. F. Nevill

CHIEF JUSTICE FuLLER's 5 SLIP, !!

That IS what William H. Taft swore
RI do when he was inaugurated presi-
dent of the United States. 1t became
known only recently that in admin.
istering the oath Chief Justice Fuller
made a slight slip. The oath as pre-
scribed reads: 5. :.
"I william Howard Taft, do SOL
EMMY swear that I will faithfully ex-
ecute the office Of president OF the
United States and will to the best OF
nv ability preserve, protect and De.
fend the constitution Of the United
States" .~ Z. "a :.

learned, in speaking the oath tor MI.
Taft to repeat, phrase by phrase, 20 ut
tered 1t that he said:
"And I viii to the best Of my ability
preserve, protect and execute the con-
stitution Of the United States"
Mr.. Taft repeated it exactly AZ CHIEF
Justice Fuller said and then, bending,
kissed the Bible. Senator Knox, who
was standing beside him as the oath
was administered, noticed the devia-
ton from the prescribed oath and
nudged him, saying softly: ~
Don't do It," 49,,
OF course the slight error made no
difference in the validity Of the oath.
but It is being recalled with smile
about the White House because Of the
well known fact that Mr.. Taft has
larger regard for constitutional limita-
lions than some other presidents have

No Wonder the Bird Was Not Tender
When Served.
One Of the most annoying things
about swans is that they live to an
extremely great age and that It Is
impossible for the ordinary observer
to guess what their years may be-
President Grover Cleveland once had
an amusing experience with some
swans, according TO a writer in the
American Magazine. He had been IN
the south shooting and brought home
number Of Wild swans. one OF which
be sent to each member OF his cabi.
net and to some other associates.
"All the boys" said Mr.. Cleveland.
thanked me politely for haYing re-
membered them, but none OF them
seemed TO have much TO say about
how they enjoyed the birds
Carlisle, ! found, had his cooked
on a night when he was dining out.
Another, when / asked him, said he
hoped | wouldn't mind, but he had
sent his home 10 his old mother. Th1r-
Der didn't mention his bird at al for
two days. Finally asked him about
1t.
sThurber, did you get that swan
all righty
"'Yes, Sir-oh, yes, got the swan
all right, thank you. and he bent over
bis desk and seemed very busy.
"'Fine bird, l said.
Eyes, sir. fine bird and he went on
working.

''He waited a minute. and then he
said: We'll. sir. guess they didn't
cook him right at my house. They
cooked him only two days And be
went on working without cracking a
smile"

Edible Flowers q India.

Many edible flowers, it appears. are
to be found 10 India. One of the most
appreciated grows on a tree about
which we have very little information,
but which In the country itself Is
named the 'mhowad." The natives
consume an enormous number Of these
flowers. whose pale yellow corolIae are
pulpy and thick. and they prepare
them in various ways.
when they are fresh they are put Ia
cakes. to which they give a sweet
flavor, but they are more especially
used for making bread after they have
