MINISTER CRANE
 IS MAKING GOOD
His Plea for Closer Relations With America Arouses
 Chinese Enthusiasm
OPEN DOOR FOR TRADE
Special from United Presso /

Special from United Press.)
 Pekin, Sept. 18.-A new era in the friendly relations between China and America is indicated in the enthusias- tic farewell accorded Chang Yin-Tang, who is now enroute to Canton. where he will spend month before proceed ing to America, where he succeeds Dr. Wu Ting Fang as Chinese Minister.
 H. P. Fletcher, the American charge d'affaires. and the highest officials of the Wal Wu Pu took part in the fare well. From the expressions heard on all sides, it is evident that China ex- poets Chang Yin-Tang to strengthen the political and commercial ties be- tween China and America.
 This expectation is heightened by the recent speech of the new American minister to China. Charles R. Crane, made to the Chicago Chamber of Com merce. A synopsis of Cranes address was cabled to China and his plea for closer relations between China and America, the maintenance of the open door for trade and the integrity of China. has aroused the greatest en- thusiasm here.
 By reason of President Taft's ihti- mate knowledge of Oriental conditions and Chang Yin-Tangs schooling in modern diplomacy, it is expected that the new Chinese legation. at Washing ton will play a much more prominent part than any Chinese legation has yet done.

WALL STREET TO-DAY.
Especial from United Press. )

New York, Sept. 18.-The most pro- nounced feature of the opening trading was increased activity and a broaden ing tone in the stock market. A large volume of business was distributed all over the room. There were more rec ord-breaking sales of Reading. which sold up to 1713s while St. Paul ad- vauced 1 point to 164B. The Hill stocks were strong and active. The industrials were generally strong.
 Il a. m.-Trading in large volume prevailed in the first hour but price changes were moderate. Steel common declined A from the opening and Reading, St. Paul and Union Pacific sustained about the same loss.
 Governments unchanged: other bonds strong.
 The stock market showed a moder- ate improvement in the last hour with number of stocks making fair gains There was fair demand for Southern Pacific, Steel common and a few of the speciaIties. Reading continued un- der pressure closing at a shade under yesterdays close. Much of the selling in the late hour was the usual realiz- ing of profits at the end of the week. Governments unchanged; other bonds strong.

RAILROAD COMPANY
 DISCHARGES O'BRIEN
 WHO SAVED EXPRESS
O'Brien Declares that His
 Attempt at Suicide Was : Merely a Practical Joke

Misfortune has pursued Michael OBrien, the man whose heroism saved the Boston express from dashing into the open draw at the railroad bridge across the Pequonnock river. His nerves appear to have been badly shaken by his experience during the time that he feared the heavy train would plunge headlong against the great iron draw. to be wrecked with fearful loss of life. He has been dis charged from his position by the com pany for which he performed so sig nal service. This is because of the story that he attempted suicide last week by taking carbolic acid.
 OBrien said to a representative of the Farmer yesterday that he bought a bottle of carbolic acid of Clerk John Flynn at Jennie Hamiltons drug store, and that he even put the bottle to his lips. But he declares that he never intended to take the stuff, but merely to play a practical joke on George French, his friend, who dashed the bottle from OBrien's hand.
 O'Brien's friends believe that the railroad company does not intend to permanently discharge him, but mere ly to give him a respite from duty sufficient to enable him to regain his shattered nerve. It is said that O'Brien received the pledge when he was confirmed and does not drink

Barber is not an American citizen, so if this be true the lack of hospitality which his actions and those of his friend seemed to express to a. guest of the city does not reflect on the courtesy of the citizens of Bridgeport. MT. Barber could not be found today.

News reached here to-day thatsRevs Father Francis Too1an. rector of tho Catholic church at Newport. IN. K.I where he has been stationed for thd past IF years. has been promoted fd the pastorate of the parish of tic Sacred Heart, at Albany. NY. Father Toolan is a native of this city. He was a member of St. Mary's partsh where as a boy he served mass.
 His parents lived in Booth street. and as a lad Father Toolan showed a marked predilection for study. After graduating from the public schools he attended college and made his theo- logy at Mt. St. Mary's. Emmetsburg. He was ordained a priest at Troy seminary in December, 1885. and was appointed a curate at the church he, now becomes rector of.
 Following his service as curate in Albany he was made pastor at New port which included the mission of Middleville. He was an indefatigab worker and he soon won the heartiest cooperation of his flock. As a renult he constructed a handsome stona church in Newport which will stand as a monument to his zeal and indus try. He also built a mission church at Middleville. In both places he was de- servedIy beloved.

 ''While here Father Toolan's work has been apparent to all. The new church which graces the Main street will always stand forS his persever- ance, hard work, church loyalty and civic pride He has won @ place in ttfe hearts of the people inside and outside his church that marks the man. Seventeen years is long enough to uncover a mans failings if he has any serious faults and to determine, his good qualities. A man who has always stood for the right in every moral issue, who has not been excllh- sive or bigoted, his departure is loss to the community and a sorrow to his people,"

HUSBAND OF AGED
 BRIDE IN COURT
Yale Law Student, Who Mar ried Hartford Woman,
 Charged with Perjury
UNDER BOND OF $l,oOO
Especial from United Press.)

Especial from United Press.)
 Hartford. Sept. 18.-"The course of true lover never runs smooth" This old adage was firmly impressed on the mind of Charles R.. Goddard. a Yale student, and the youthful husband of Lucinda M. Treat, a 70year-old widow, when he was arraigned in the police court to-day on the charge of perjury. The charge is based on the fact that when Goddard secured his marriage license last August, he is alleged to have sworn that the age of his bride to-be was 36 instead of 70.
 The case was continued until a week from to-day under bond of $1,000, which was furnished by Judge Gafney of New Britain.
 Since the marriage of the couple on Sept 1, their path has been rather a hard one to travel. Goddard, who is but 21 years of age, met his bride while he was peddling books during the summer to secure funds to com plete his course at Yale. They fell and were married. The first snag in their happiness came on Sept. g. when E. A. Treat. the widows son. applied to the probate court to, have con- servator appointed for his mothers estate, said to be worth $4O,000, claim ing that she could not have been in her right mind when she married so young a man. The decision is pend ing.
 The climax of their troubles. how ever, came last night when the young husband was arrested on the perjury charge and despite the earnest plead ings. of his aged wife. was dragged away to jail. She offered bond but this was refused and he was compelled to remain in the cell all night.

Almost at Moment Physi- clans Thought Death Was Imminent He Reused Himself and Sent Cordial Greeting to President Taft Very Little Hope Is Entertained for His Re- covery His Physicians Have Not Abandoned Hope Entirely.
Special from United Press.)

Rochester. Minn., Sept. 1S-Though his physicians declared this mornine that he has only short time to live, Gov. John A. Johnson is making a game fight for his life. At noon his condition was extremely critical while this morning he was so low that his secretary. Frank Day. was notified at Minneapolis that death was only a matter ~ of minutes and Lieut.-Gov. Eberhardt was summoned at the gov ernor's bedside.
 In spite of his condition. however the governors mind was as clear and alert as ever and he did not for a moment lose sight of the fact that President Taft was in the state. Con- sidering his duties as host to the Pres ident. Johnson sent the following tele- fore noon:
 Welcome to Minnesota. I sincerely regret illness prevents me attending your reception"
 This he signed.
 President Taft was deeply affected by this message and immediately dict ed the following reply:
 My Dear Governor Johnson:
 "I am greatly distressed to hear
 of your serious illness. miss
 your smiling face and courteous
 greeting which I have had every
 time I have come to the state
 heretofore, and I thank you for
 your message of welcome, sent
 when you are on a bed of pain.
 fervently hope and pray that your
 wonderful strength and fortitude
 will make your recovery speedy.
 My compliments and respects to
 Mrs. Johnson whose visit in Wash
 ington remember with much
 pleasure.
 WILLIAM H. TAFT"
 Governor Johnson's physicians said to-day:
 His temperature is 101, pulse 112. His pulse is more regular than it has been during the last "A hours. -Short maps obtained between 2:30 and five o'clock this morning seem to have done hinJ much good. A hypodermic injection of camphorated oil was giv- the pain and the patient has tossed about but little since that time.
 Mrs. Johnson, who was with her husband all night, was prevailed upon to leave the room long enough to se- cure a little rest. Dr. McNevin as- at the least unfavorable sign.
 Dr. Mayo says the thread upon which the Governors life hangs is frail. He may survive the crisis or he may not. A continuance of his present condition for any great length of time and another sinking spell would be almost certain to snap the cord.
 During the night the Governors pull sation varied between 124 and 12S, while his temperature was as high as 1O15.
 The Governor is making such a hard fight that, however hopeless his illness may seem, at noon his physicians be- lieved his fine constitution might still pull him through.

AUNTS OF MARGARET HUGHES DEFY
 COURT /
Would Take Niece from Mrs, Mccormick, Her Legal
 Guardian
DELANEY WRITES WARNING

What was almost an attempted ab- duction occurred yesterday at the plant of the Bryant Electric Co.,, when an effort was made to carry away Margaret Hughes, an orphan, about 15 years of age, by her aunt, Mrs. James Nagle, of B Clinton avenue, and two other aunts of the girl, all of whom are very much incensed because the probate court took their niece from the home of Mrs. Nagle where she had been living and placed her with Mrs. Patrick Mccormick of Lee avenue. The girl was taken from her aunt after the treatment given her by Mrs. Nagle had been told to the judge of the pro- bate court in language which almost moved those who heard it to tears.
 Mrs. Nagle, with the other women. went to the factory and asked to see the girl. Sunt. Alvin Moulton knew the circumstances of the case and went with the niece personally. He was surprised to see the aunts attempt to drag the girl out of the factory. He watched the proceedings for while and finally interfered, sending the girl ed to Probation Officer Helen King and told, her what had happened.
 She reported the case to Prosecuting Attorney Alexander Delaney, who considered making out a warrant for the women, charging them with "re- moving 8 county charge, but he fin- ally decided to write all the women a strong letter, warning them to let their niece alone. ThereI is a heavy penalty for taking away a county charge.
 Mrs. Mccormick said this morning that she herself had been troubled greatly by Mrs. Nagle. Yesterday Mrs. Nagle and the other aunts went to the home of Mrs. Mccormick and walked into her house without knock ing. They accused Mrs. Mccormick vigorously. Mrs. Mccormick finally succeeded in getting her unwelcome callers out of the house and then sent for the police.

Meant to Cheat the Doos.

In a certain part of Scotland, &C
cording to Dean Ramsey, the shep
herds used to take their collies with
them to church. The dogs behaved
well during the sermon, but began to
be restless during the last psalm, ant
saluted the final blessing with Joyful
banks. In one church the congregation
resolved to stop this unseemly detail;
so. when a strange minister was abou
to pronounce the blessing, all re

expected. He hesitated and paused

DO you FEAR GROWING OLD?
Remain Lovabie and Keep the Mind
Alert to the Times.

The future is not half so creepy to
the girl standing with unwilling feet
where the brook and river meet" as
IL is to that same girl when she
reaches "the between age and finds
age staring her in the face.
Every woman hates TO grow old, and
the more vital has been her life, the
more filled with JOY and popularity,
the greater that hatred
1t is not pleasant to picture oneself
friendless, lonely and not wanted
around; to feel ones hair and eyes
and teeth get the worse for wear, and
know that however tight your grip,
youth refuses to be held
An old woman who is lovable never
yet lacked love; the trouble is that so
many of us forget to keep lovable. We
grow sour, or disconnected or captious
and then blame our l@ck of friends on
our years.
The woman who need not fear grow
ing old is the woman who keeps alive
to the times, whose mind is alert TO
the best in the world today rather
than raking over the past; who does
not worry, therefore does not fuss, y
whose aim is young heart and in
achieving it forgets to fret owe:
wrinkles and bodily age.
