MOUNT HOLLY, n. j., November O.
The authorities at Florence. N J., have
on their hands either one Of the most re-
markable robbery cases that has ever
been cleared up or one of the strangest
instances of mistaken identity yet re-
corded. They have under arrest William
Hamilton, a wealthy farmer and for
merly prominent church WORKER, on the
charge of entering &he home Of Schuyler
Rainier, friend Of thirty year,. cracking
a safe and taking from 1t the sum of
$1,000. Hamilton maintains his innO-
cence, claiming to have been on his own
farm a mile away at the time that the
robbery was committed.
The robbery took place last Friday. and
since that time Hamilton has been one of
the foremost workers among those at
tempting to run down the thief: that In
spite Of the fact that Ranier's house,
keeper, Mrs Jane Noxon, had charged
him, with the crime Immediately after. 1t
was committed. The arrest was deferred
owing to an insuff1ciency of evidence, but
later testimony of such nature was given
by Hamilton's pastor. the Rev. DIR. Con-
over of the First Methodist Church of
Florence. and another man, that the de-
tectives decided that they were justified
in proceeding. Hamilton's family and
friends StOOO Dy MIN StOutly WHeT Hc
was arrested, and Immediately furnished
the $1,000 bail required. -.-
Housekeeper Chief Witness.
The story told by Mrs. Noxon is that
Hamilton entered the house, lis face con-
cealed by a mask, fastened her in her
chair, and proceeded to loot the safe.
Before he left she says that in his ex-
citement he removed his mask and she
recognized him. She had previously
recognized his voice. Rainier hesitated
long on account of his extended friend
ship with the accused man before he
would enter a complaint against Hamil-
ton, but he finally decided that his house
keepers Identification was too convincing.
The magistrate before whom Hamilton
was taken had also been his lifelong
friend. and was much moved. declaring
that he felt certain that some mistake
| had been made, but could only hold the
prisoner in view of the evidence of Mrs.
NoxOn.
Rainier is reputed to be worth $50. 200.
and is known to keep considerable money
about his place. When the $1,000 was re-
moved from the safe the thief overlooked
bonds and other valuable papers worth
$4,000.
Hamilton owns a fifty-acre farm. has
over $1,000 in the bank. and is known as
one of the steadiest and most prosperous
mSn OF the community.

bration at New York this fall, and Sir
Edgar Speyer. the banker, are included
in King Edwards birthday honors. Ad-
miral Seymour and Sir Edgar are made
privy councillors
Lieut.. E. H. Shackleton, VINO early this
year returned from an antarctic expedi-
the pole. was made a knight.
Admiral Fisher was born In 1871 and
entered the British naval service when
thirteen years of age, working his way up
through all the grades to the rank of
admiral OF the feet, which he attained
In 1905.
When rhe channel fleet was re-organiz-
ed. in 1907. Admiral Fisher had a serious
difference with Lord Charles Beresford
over it's composition. Both the public
