the mission Of Joseph PetrosIno was 10
protect ex-Prrsident Roosevelt from an
intended attempt on his life in the course
Of his forthcoming visit 10 Italy
The authority FOR this story IS Ferdi-
nando de Roberts. an ex-custom house
guard OF SaIerno, and an intimate friend
Of Petrosino. who, he says. Travelled ia
his company from Rome 20 Naples. when
they had a confidential conversation. De
Roberts told al Naples that PetrosInO
did not go 10 Sicily In connection with
criminal emigration, but for the purpose
Of watching batch Of emigrants. who re-
Gently returned from New York. some Of
them being escaped convicts. who were
suspected Of aiming at Mr.. Roosevelt :
life. either when he was in Naples or
during his proposed short stay az Taor-
nina
De Roberts SAYS that PetrosinO showed
him Mr. ROOsevelts photograph bearing
an affectionate dedication, and this would
surely be found among his belongings.
Petrosino himself was convinced that ~
ROosevelt's life was in danger. and he
determined 10 strive 10 protect him at the
risk Of his own life. he told de R0-
bertis that he intended 20 wear the dress
OF a Capuchin friar in Sicily, as he sUs-
pected that otherwise he would be easily
recognized.
Among the many rumors and specula-
tions there is "A theory which meets with
a great deal Of acceptance that Petrosin0
was killed by his own spies.

whether there Is any basis for the story
or whether Petrosino actually had any
spies in his employ.
The police have arrested a number OF
suspects in Palermo. and some recently
returned emigrants. Two Of the men fr-
rested are supposed 10 have returned from
new York. and they are suspected OF hav-

been directly implicated in II.
The American consul AT Palermo IS
quoted as saying that the revolver found
near Petrosino was not his, his own
weapon having been found inside his

NAMED AS GOEBEL'S SLAYER
EX-SOldier Howard, Boston Wife
Murderer, Charged with Deed.
Report Is that Old Mystery Has Been
SOIved-Accused Has Had
Bad Record.

Boston, March H-According TO several
stories told here to-day. William c.
Howard. the ex-Coast Artilleryman. sent
to prison for lie this week for murder
ing his wife Ida. at New Bedford. may
have been the person who fired the shot
that killed Gov. William Goebel, of Ken
lucky, at Frankfort. on January 90. 1900.
II is said that Howard is lthe nephew
of James b. Howard, the feud chief Of
Kentucky. and that the latter brought
the boy down from the mountains 10
Frankfort for the purpose of firing the
fatal shot. Report has it that a former
Kentuckian now living I'm Woonsocket.
r. T., has made the statement that the
wife murderer is the nephew Of jim
Howard. and that he killed Goebel.
When the rumor that Howard was the
nephew Of Jim Howard was mentioned TO
one of those connected with his defense
i'm the trial i'm New Bedford last week,
he stated that although the relationship
might not be right. Howard had been in
Kentucky at the time He was then
fifteen years old. In his enlistment papers
he gave his native town as Seviervilie,
-t--- ''e-N Nt-N VA AAaF eNeNN'A tAN - NNeAhN-
ful about his birthplace.
AT the time Goebel was assassinated
Howard was but fifteen years old. The
fact that Howard was a boy then has
some weight in connection with the
charge now circulating against him Of
killing the governor Of Kentucky. for the
reason that witness Of the shooting tes-
tlhed at the trial Of Jim Howard that
the shooting was the work OF boys
William c. Howard has relatives in Bell
County. KY, the birthplace or Jim How
ard. the famous feudist who was SEN
fenced 10 be hanged for the murder OF
GOebeL
Other developments of the same nature
as that of his alleged connection with
the assassination Of Goebel are promised.
In Tennessee he bore a bad reputation.
and there are two killings in the wilds OF
the mountains of Tennessee that have
been vaguely attributed 10 him. although
no definite proof was ever forthcoming.
Howard shot and killed Edward Dew
hurst in a public park at New Bedford
three years ago. but was acquitted
through the testimony Of a young woman
who was with him al the time

"Our church IS passing into mellow
middle age, but the progressive spirit
Of its youth remains was the keynote
OF the ffty-six birthday of the Waugh
Methodist Episcopal Church, celebrated
yesterday.
The event was really a family re-
union" as the pastor Of the church.
Rev. George Z. Maydweu. expressed a.,
and special effort was made to bring
out the old timers and pioneers. OF the
founders, there are none now living The
last Of the hOnored roll passed away sew
eral years ago. But the oldest living
member. Mrs. Mary Cook Wise. who has
worshiped with the congregation since
IFS earliest period. rejoiced yesterday
IN the anniversary. and beamed with
pride over the progress Of the church.
The ceremonies were simple All the
former pastors were invited. and upon
two Of them was bestowed the honor OF
preaching the sermons Of the day. The
older members were out in force. as it
was distinctively their day and while
the congregational chronicles were not
given in the services. much early history
Has Had SIX Churches.
The congregation has wOrshlped in six
churches. The first was "A humble. one
story dwelling, occupied March Is. 1853:
in the fall Of the same year the front
room Of a house on c street was rented
and camp-meeting tent OF Wesley
Chapel was purchased; then came a new

years later the first church was dedi-
Gated on the present site. Third and A

The present edifice was opened October
IS 1874 and has seen over a quarter Of
a century of service.
Rev. job a. Price preached the sermon
az the morning service, and Rev. Henry
r. Naylor in the evening. Both are for
mer pastors OF the church, and both are
now retired from the ministry.
There is a counterfeit good in this
world. and counterfeit bad q" said Rev.
DIT Naylor. The phiianthropist. so
called, may be actUated by selfish motives
lie may be accepted by the world as a
good man. and yet be, az heart. a cold.
sLrewd, calculating man, without thought
Of kindness for his fellow-creatures.
Thus it is that many a man who IS
apparently doing good in the world is
doing had. God has infinite mercy for
His people; He does not punish them
when the law is violated. but HIS first
thought is for the aneviation of their
suffering We see this illustrated in
many ways. A mother does not think
OF Furnishing a child who has been hurt
as a result of disobedience.
The heart Is the sanctuary in which
Gods word must be received. and here
Il must be kept"
