SUSPECTS ARRESTED.
BUT LEON LING HAS SUCCESS
FULLY ALLUDED CAPTURE.
JEALOUSY PROMPTED S ACT.
Police in Many Cities Are Making
Thorough Searches; Chinese
Legation Issues Order to
Their CounseIs to Aid.

| New York.-After bit of police
furry yesterday, an hour or two Of
unverified reports and telephoninl
between cities, the murder of Elsie
Sisel, daughter Of Paul Sigel OF this
city, and granddaughter of Major
General Frantz Sigel, Of Civil war
fame, resolved itself into an eunsolved
crime again last night.
Chung Sin, who formerly occupied
a room adjoining that where the girls
body was found, is held by the police
at Amsterdam, N. Y, but what has
been learned from him has not served
to clear up the case.
At Schnectady, the Chinaman ar
rested yesterday, at first thought to
be Leon Ling, or William l.. Leon,
who Is sought as the girls murdered
pretty well established that he is not
the man. The case, aside from de-
velopments in New York yesterday,
is about where 1t was when Elsie
Sigel's body was found In the trunk
in a room over the Eighth avenue
chop suey restaurant late Friday
night.
While the authorities upstate were
putting the two Cinnamon through
an inquisition, Sun Leong, keeper OF
the restaurant, was being questioned
at police headquarters here. Sun
Leong disappeared on the night the
body was found, but he quietly and
calmly surrendered himself early YES
terday. He is being retained as
material witness, but his voluntary
surrender is taken to mean that he is
not implicated In any way In the
crime.
Early yesterday afternoon the New
York police had been communicated
with by the police at Schnectady, and
even before the final decision was
reached there last night that the
Chinaman held was innocent, had
come to the conclusion that he was
not Leon Ling.
Although the mission In Chinatown,
where Elsie Sigel formerly taught,
has been closed, a meeting of Chinese
who have been converted to Chris.
tianity was held in a Dover street
mission yesterday afternoon, to dis.
cuss plans for raising fund to be of.
fered as reward for the capture OF
Elsie Sige's slayer.
Jealousy Prompted Act.
Theories as to the motive for the
murder all coincide on the jealousy
Of Leon Ling. That he killed her be.
cause of her apparepnt friendship for

terial witness, is the predominatine

FIELD OF HONOR COMMISSION.
Practices Seem Absurd To-Day, But
Had Their Place In History.

Perhaps wit Is stimulated by
slight arrangement Of the nerves, and
good things said on the field of battle
are sometimes recorded. When Bully
Egan" fought Curran with pistols the
bulky Egan complained that his oDpo-
nent was as thin as a blade of grass.
Let my size be chalked out upon
your body" said Curran, land any hits
outside Of the line shall not count"
1t was not good form, however, to
make a parade Of magnanimity, and
the coxcombical practice Of firing in
the air or dumb shooting" or "chil-
dren's play" was strictly prohibited by
the rules, Of which 36 were drawn up
by representatives Of the five most
eminent counties-Galway, Tipperary,
Mayo, Sligo and Roscommon--in 1777.
They met at the summer assizes at
Clonmel and seem to have done their
work very gravsly and honestly, In
cluding special rule for Simple, un.
premeditated encounters with the
small sword" There Is a large ele-
ment Of absurdity about 1t all, no
doubt, but even dueling has had Its
place as a rough, inefficient test OF
manhood.

Character Written on the Face.

Faces are records Oh which appear

thought and every wicked desire. The

soon looks like an orge or a dragon.
The man who dissipates and drinks

Moreover, it is our good, true thoughts
that make for our happiness, as well
as our appearance. All the mental and
physical systems are practically con
trolled by these little guests of our
brains Lie awake all night and worry
and behold your next morning face
1t will scare you to death You can
change your embittered moods by eX

reading wholesomely stimulating

Women Like Pockets.

"Talk about the small boy and his
desire for plenty of pockets" remarked
Harry New, manager of one of the
biggest concerns in the city or in the
west, manufacturing women's gar
ments, mo youngster with his first
pair of trousers is half as excited
about his pockets as is the average
woman buying a cloak or suit. Within
the last few years the question of
pockets has come to be an important
matter in women's garments. Won.

various small articles, but they can
even like them so placed in their coats
that they can walk with their hands
In them, the same as man. It's get.
ting so that we manufacturers hardly
dare put out a garment without paying
attention first of all to the pocket fea

A Borneo Parasite.

A famous rarity in the vegetable
world of Borneo Is the rafllesia, the
buah pakmah of Malays. The plant Is
one of the most degraded of parasites,
and so completely does 1t submerge
itself in the tissues Of its host that the
only part which ever shows itself to
the external world is the enormous
flower. The diameter of the flower
measures about two feet, the odor Is
repulsive and there is not one feature
Of beauty to recommend 1t to man. 1t
appears, however, to hold an impor'
tant place in the pharmacopoeia OF
the natives, which perhaps imagine
that the plant to which nature has
given so uninviting an exterior must
possess some hidden virtue in the way
Of compensation. Various species oi
rafflesia are known in Borneo, and
oddly enough their hosts are In.
variably species Of vine (cissus).

smoking a pipe had serious fall
Some time later curious swelling

efforts had been vainly made 10 re-
duce 1t by common methods, was
found to contain a fragment of the

American Democracy.

Privy Councillor Zuntz, on his re-
turn to Berlin, after three-months'
visit to the United States, delivered a
lecture before the students of the In.
dustrial high school of that city, in
which he had much to say in praise Of
American students and of the college
system under which they were trained.
"Our Students" he said, can help
themselves financially only by teach
ing. The American student has the
advantage in this respect, because
without losing caste or dignity, he can
break stone, act as a waiter or porter
or do work at any trade. 1t is not an
infrequent occurrence that a young
man acts as waiter at a gathering OF
people where he is received as an
equal as soon as his menial duties
have been performed"

IS LACK OF FAITH
JEALOUS MAN UNCOMPLlMEN-
TARY TO LOVED ONE.
Perfect Faith Should Follow the
PIightng of Troth-"What Is
Worthy Of Jealousy Is Not
Worthy of Love-"

Among the dictionary definitions of
jealousy Is that of envy. True, an
other Is jealous watchfulness, but this
state of mind implies fear, the uneasi-
ness OF uncertainty, and this Is in
compatible with the perfect love which
casteth out fear. AS associated with
love the word implies a dread Of los
ing the thing desired, state of mind
which to the timid perhaps is natural
and we'll nigh inevitable in the first
stages Of courtship.
The man who is seeking to win
woman and who has rivals In the field
has a strain upon his nerves and emo
tions which upsets his normal balance.
He becomes worried, fanciful and
moody.
The woman who already Is won, but
who must conceal her feelings until
the victor chooses to claim his con-
quest, scarcely can fail to be restless,
capricious and nervous This mainly
is due to the restraint which she Is
putting upon herself and the haunting
fear that he may be in love with some
one else.
But when the lover has spoken and
each holds the plighted troth Of the
beloved, then jealousy even in its
most amiable form involves a lack Of
faith in the truth and the sincerity of
of The beloved which is anything but
complimentary declares writer in
the Chicago Tribune.
Whatever its cause, jealousy is
bound to be a disturbing element, and
tIe lrss indulge It is the better. Al.
ways the ression Of it is moro
aaulfal than bolpful There is great
Teal Of truth in The doctrine of mental
SUGGESTION as applied to love, and this
especially is he case with men.
The jealous woman hates to hear
otler women prai,eli and though she
95sb biz may remark upon their good
qualities herself, she objects when one
OF her own admirers, however family,
expresses admiration for another wom-
an And when she praises it is with a
reservation She is pretty, but" etc.
No wise man would marry a jealous
woman however much he might care
for her, could he realize how little
peace and comfort probably will be his
portion after marriage No wise wom-
an would marry jealous man, since
she certainly could not hope to be hap
py if she did.
Jealousy is responsible for more
broken engagements, more matrimo-
nial unhappipess, than any other
cause, with the possible exception of
beastly intemperance in drink. Yet
people who ought to know better &C
on excusing it, claiming that 1t is
the result of love and the natural out
come of humble opinion Of oneself,
instead of being, as in nearly all
cases it is, the result Of colossal van
ity, vanity which Is exasperated at
the thought of precedence given to an
other.
The man or woman whose tempera
ment will allow him or her to pass
through life superior to the pangs of
jealousy has cause to be thankful. 1t
is wise to remember the saying Of the
Greek sage, that what is worthy of
jealousy is not worthy Of love-"
