WILSON IS GIVEN
POST JERSEYMAN
WOULD NOT TAKE
Beekman Winthrop, of Orange,
Declines Position as Under
Secretary of State.
Especial to the Evening star.I

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10.-The regret
expressed here over the refusal Of
Beekman Winthrop, of Orange, N. j.,
to accept a position in the State de-
partment has been somewhat dissi-
pated by the nouncem that the
post has been offered to Huntington
Wilson, recently appointed minister to
Argentine Republic.
Mr.. Wilson is a native of Chicago
and has had considerable diplomatic
experience in Japan, where he served
as secretary of the American mission
and charge d'affaires or~iprotracted pc
riods. For about a year and a half he
was third assistant secretary of state,
and about a month ago was confirmed
as minister to the Argentine Republic,
having previously been appointed as
minister to Roumania and Servia and
diplomatic agent to Bulgaria. Before
taking up the duties of that office,
however, he exchanged places with
Spencer Eddy, minister to Argentina.
Beekman Winthrop has been assist
ant secretary of the treasury for
almost two years. Senator Knox said
last night that he knew nothing re-
garding Mr.. Winthrop's future plans.
Mr.. Winthrop declined last night to
discuss the matter.

Mr.. Baird's term will expire before

RAILROAD" WOMAN WHO
SOUGHT JERSEYMAN'S LIFE.
Mrs. JennisOn, Brokers' Wife, Is
Thought LOve=Crazed.

ATLANTIC CITY, Feb. 10.-Mrs.
Elizabeth Jennison, who, with her hus-
band, Frank e. Jennison, formerly a
New York broker, gained considerable
notoriety in 1902 by kidnapping their
daughter from each other, was rail-
roaded" from here yesterday after her
attempt to shoot John Plum, an under
takers assistant.
Mrs. Jennison, beautiful and expen-
sively dressed went to the undertake
er's place, walked into the room where
Plum was sitting and drew a loaded
revolver from her muff. Before she
could fire Plum,s brother wrested it
from her. She was arrested.
Recorder Hayes gave her the choice
of going to Jail for thirty days or pay
ing Il fine of $25 and leaving. the city at
once. She chose the latter and left

The Thrice-a-W Week World, now that
a great presidential campaign is FORE
Swallowed, hopes to be a better paper
than it has ever been before, and it
has made its arrangements accordingly.
It's news service covers the entire
globe, and it reports everything fully
promptly and accurately. It is the
only newspaper not a daily, which is
as good as daily, and which will keep
you as completely informed of what is
happening thruout the world.
The Thrice-a-Week World is fair
in its political reports. You can get
the truth from it's columns, Wheths<
you are Republican or Democrat, and
that is what you want. 80
A special feature of the Thrice-a-
Week World has always been its serial
fiction. It publishes novels by the
best authors in the world, novels which
in book form sell for $3.50 apiece, and
it's high standard in this respect will
be maintained in the future as in the
past.
The Thrice-a- Week Worlds regular
subscription price is only $1.0O per
year, and this pays for 1876 papers.
We offer this unequalled newspaper
and the Yellowstone Monitor both for
$2.75 for one year.

resolution of inquiry into the amount
of moneys appropriated during the
present fiscal year for detecting
frauds and the efforts made to bring
ito trial offenders against the law.
The resolution called for the ap-
pointment of committee Of five
members to conduct the investigation
and it was authorized to employ Ste
nographers and clerks, to send for
persons and papers and to administer

The sum Of $4,000 was appropriate
