DEN MARK,

The police in Roskilde suspicion
that it is two Germans who have com.
n1itted the robbery at the cathedral
and have placed them under arrest.
One OF them was found the other day
carrying an is inch package and upon
investigation it was found that the
package contained one of the missing
sections of one of the historic chande
liers. The persons arrested refuse to
dlvulge their names or to give an ac-
count OF there whereabouts during the
past five or six weeks, 1t is the gen
eral opinion that these men are the
guilty parties or that they at least in
some way or other are connected with
the recent burglary of the Roskilde
cathedral, which as is known, was
broken into NOT long ago and stripped
of its most valuable and historic gems.

Judge Fort requested Il hearing before
the legislature and presented the case
so cogently that the bill passed both
houses by practically a unanimous
vote. So popular was the measure
that whenever the senator from Essex
thought Of that by request he went
into a secluded spot and kicked him.

sentenced to prison on their honor and
allows them to remain at large during

Driving the gamblers out of Long
Branch is another case in point,
Everybody said it could not be done.
The gamblers had large amounts in
vested, ran some of the most notorious
joints around New York, were in
trenched in power and controlled poll
tics. Justice Fort had nothing on his
side but the law and the fact. He
held the grand jury in continuous SEES
sion, indicted the light fingered gen.
Temen, convinced them that he meant
business, then told them to leave the
state and If they ever came back he
would send them to state prison. They
went and did not return.
Fort was still on the supreme bench
when he was nominated for governor.
The politicians wanted him to con-
finue holding the Office after his nomi-
nation, Offering many precedents for
such course But that was not
Forts way. While going to the con-
vention that had just named him for

IL John Franklin Fort, governor OF
New Jersey, should say it is po-

Roosevelt and Taft had won out in
this matter, although it would have
been pity to waste as good man as
Fort on that job.
In q way Governor Fort is to New

and recently spent a day together in

in driving gambling out Of Long

At a school exhibition a Juvenile
elocutionist got up to recite the first
piece of his life. He was ambitious
He wished to make a great success Of
his piece, and he had been told by
his teacher that the secret of elocution
was the gesture-for every phrase its
fitting gesture. The opening line of
the boys selection was, 1.-THE comet
lifts its tail of fire. The oyerzealous
boy, to fit its proper gesture to this
line, lifted up the tail Of his coat and
held 1t out in horizontal position.

Paid Back Every Cent.
There are q few Instances in the ca

the quality Of the man. The first oc-
CURED just after he was out of law
school. His father had advanced mon
ey for young Forts education but the
boy did not rest until out of his first
earnings he paid back every cent.
The second Incident occurred when
the young man was choosing a career,
He is not the first New Jersey gov
sernor in the Fort family, his uncle
George l. Fort, having held that exalt-
ed Office back in the fifties. When ad-
yising with the old gentleman about
the way to grab the success fruit off
the political tree the original Governor
Fort advised his nephew to move to
Jersey City and become a Democrat,
as that was the only party through
which he could hope for preferment.
To this the young man demurred. He
did not object to Jersey City. but he
was a Republican and would not
change his coat for an office
The third characteristic event was
pulled off many years later In the
meantime John Franklin Fort had
been doing things, had served a long
time as district judge, was leader at
the bar and q political orator recog-
nized by his party. In was in 1854,
and his friends wanted him to be a
delegate at large to the national con-

way. He was for Edmunds for presi-

for Blaine. He stood by his guns and
made a speech for Edmunds in the
state convention. 1t must have been a
good speech, for he was elected dele

The liquor interests, of course, sop-
posed it, and the politicians advised
Fort to sidestep the issue or go light
on its Endorsement, but that again was
not his way. He came out 1atfootedly
for the law and made it one of the
chief issues Of his campaign.
And he meant it. He proved that

Origin of the Painters Famous "Rain,
Steam and Speed"

Sleam and Speed.
OF all pictures by the great English
color poet, Turner, none is more popu-
lar than that which now graces the
London National gallery under the
name Of Rain, Steam and Speed"
which was first exhibited in 1914 1t
is impossible to reproduce this ade-
quately.
Concerning the origin of this picture
Ruskin furnishes an interesting tale
The story was told to him by a friend,
Lady Simon. 1t seems that she was
travelling one night in the early days
of the Great Western railway from
Exeter to London. when had taken
off my coat and smoothed my ruff1ed
plumes and generally settled myself
she tells, Il looked UP to see the most
wonderful eyes / ever saw, steadily,
Unanimously, clairvoyantly, kindly, pa
ternally looking at me. The hat was
over the forehead, the mouth and chin
buried in the brown velvet coat collar
Of the brown greatcoat. Well, we went
on, and the storm went on more and
more until we reached Bristol, where
we waited ten minutes. My old gen
tleman rubbed the side window with
his coat cuff, in vain. He attacked the
center window, again in vain, so blur
red and blotted was it with the tor
rents Of rain. A moments hesitation
and then, Young lady, would you mind
my putting down this window
"1Oh, no not at ALL
"'You may be drenched, you know
"'Never mind, sir
Immediately down went the win
dow and out went the old gentleman's
head and shoulders, and I said, .Oh,
please let me look
Now, you will be drenched,' he re-
monstrated. But he half opened the
window for me to see. Such q night,
Such chaos Of elemental and artificial
lights and noises I never saw nor
heard He drew up the window as we
moved on. i leaned back for some
minutes with closed eyes, then opened
them and said, Well, I have been
drenched, but it was well worth tt
