The Mystery of Charlie Ross.

The Whitla kidnapping. the most sensa-
has naturally stirred memories of the
Charlie Ross abduction and as naturally
brought out a new claimant as the
principal of that unsolved mystery. A
brakeman in a ttsburg suburb has long
cherished the belief that he is Charlie
Ross. Charles Brewer, farm hand
killed OH the railroad tracks near Mid
dletown, n. Y, last February, enter
tanned similar belief. In 1905 a Texan
claimant appeared. No doubt there are
many others When Christian Ross died
i'm 1897 he had spent 100000 in vain
effort to locate his lost son. He said in
1880 that he had then followed up several
hundred false clues leading to all parts
of the country
Charlie Ross, boy of four years, was
abducted from Germantown, Pa, in July,
1874, by peddlerS, as was supposed. A
ransom of $4,000 was asked by his alb
ductors, who are generally rcputed to
have been the two men who were ia
tally shot while attempting burglary in
Bay Ridge i'm December, 1875. The ac-
cepted theory with regard to the lads
fate is that he died on Il boat after three
months of captivity and was cast into
the waters of Newark bay.
However that may be, the idea has
persisted in many quarters that Charlie
Ross is alive, just as in Louisiana the
tradition long obtained that Marshal Ney
was living there, having been shot at
only with blank cartridges by his exccu-
TONERS. No doubt for genera ion to
come claimants will crop out. The fate
of the unfortunate lad has become our
great American mystery, our kaspar
Hauser and Man-in- the Iron-Mask case.
the echoes of which will continue to he

CONTROLLER MURRAY OPPOSED
Doesn't Favor National Bank De-
posts Guarantee. in Kansas.

Gov. Stubs of Kansas and his party
who are here to urge the extension of
guarantee TO national bank deposits, had
conference yesterday with Attorney
General Wickersham, at which Oscar
Murray. controller of the currency, and
Judge Oldham of the same office were
also present. The kansans present ed
their case, arguing that the national banks
should be allowed to take advantage of
the Kansas guarantee law. which was i'm
effect merely a mutual insurance plan.
MI. Murray said that the practice of
the government for forty years had been
against allowing the national banks to
guarantee their deposits. and he did not
think the showing of Oklahoma, where
tho state banks guaranteed their deposits,
warranted any thought that similar
guarantee was necessary to allow the
national banks to continue business.

MONROvIA TO HAVE
NEW ATHLETIC CLUB
Walter F. Dunn Prime Mover In Pro-
Ject-signatures of Seventy Busl-
ness Men Already Obtained.
To incorporate Soon

With Walter r. Dunn as the prime
mover, nearly seventy Monrovia busi-
ness men have signified their intentions
of joining the Monrovia Athletic club.
The organization will be incorporated
within the near future under the laws
of the state of California. 1t is pro-
posed to raise about $500 with which to
equip the pavilion of La Vista Grande
hotel with shower baths, handball
courts, indoor baseball diamond and
every up-to-date gymnastic apparatus.
The initiation fee will be small and
nominal dues will be charged.
For several years the foothill city
has felt the lack of an athletic club.
Several clubs have been started, but
for one reason or another all have
proved failures. With the backing of
the business and professional men of
the city behind it, it is believed that the
proposed organization will be a success
from every point of view.
While the Granite club has partially
filled this want, 1t has been unable to
provide the members with any kind of
gymnasium. Should the Athletic club
prove a success there is every proba-
bility that the two organizations will
unite and a large club house be erect
ed. Earl Brenk and Fred I. Kremer
have been assisting Walter Dunn in his
work of organization. Dunn was at
one time one of the best athletes on
the coast, and held several records in
the dashes.
