POLICE AFTER CRIPPEN
Want American Doctor for Numbering
Wife in London.

DR.. Hawley Harvey Crippen, the
American physician who is sought by
the Scotland Yard authorities in
correction with the murder of his
wife, Belle Elmore, is believed to be
on steamer bound for the United
States. He is a native of COldwater,
Mich, and was educated in Indiana
DR.. Crippen, who is said to be fifty
years of age, made his home for some
time at 80 Hilldrop Crescent, North
London. Some time ago his wife,
Belle Elmore, vaudeville actress and
treasurer of the Music Hall Artists
Guild, disappeared, and subsequently
a notice of her death appeared in print.
The fact of her demise was gener-
ally credited, but there was more or
less gossip among the women init
mates and this finally reached the ears
of the police.
A search of the Crippen house was
made and the battered body of wo-
man was found buried in the cellar
1t had been placed in quick lime and
was burned beyond recognition, but
the finding of the body, together with
other discoveries, has left no doubt in
the minds of the authorities that the
murdered woman was Mrs Crippen.
DR.. Crippen, after attending schools
in Indiana and Los Angeles, completed
his medical studies in Michigan, New
York and Cleveland. He practiced in
Detroit, San Diego, Cal, Salt Lake
City, ST. Louis and Brooklyn as an
eve and car specialist.

Fire Drill in the Big Printing Shop

Upon the receipt of the order from
the front Office the amateur fremen
got busy without delay There was
dragging forth of hose and other ap-
paratus for fighting "the red demon"
A tall man, who seemed to be in SUI
preme command of the firemen, gave
the orders in cool, confident tones.
Innumerable hose lines were con-
nected with fire plugs in the new
building Nozzles were aimed at the
venerable structure across Jackson al
ley. AS the streams of water began
to play and the spray was rising in
clouds, like the mist from Niagara
Falls, the printers, bookbinders, wO-
man folders and other workers began
TO file out of the buildings.
There is an order that the exit of
the workmen and workwomen must be
through the side doors along the al
ley and G street. Consequently, as
the head of the line of workers reach
ed the doors on the alley and wit
messed the deluge of water crashing
against the walls of the old building
and flying back in foaming masses,
they tried to force thier way back in
to the new structure.
Hundreds of toilers behind, not
aware of the conditions in front,
pressed forward and forced the front
rank out into the alley and into the
torrents of flying water. The ensued
a scene of excitement.

Army Of Bees Sting Horses to Death

about $4,000 in all
These bees Immediately attacked
the horses, stinging them so badly
that both animals died within an hour.

thusiastic apiarist His hives are To-
Gated in the yard at one side of his
house
The coal wagon, driven by George
Low, drew up IL front of the place
about o'clock in the afternoon. Low
was a little dubious about venturing
inside. He could plainly hear an oc-
casional buzzing that was not alto
gether music to his ears.
A black swarm of buzzing bees i'm
mediately flew toward the horses and
Low The latter went scampering
down the road with his hands up to
his face, brushing away a thousand or
more of the insects which had gath
cred about him.
The frightened horses were almost
instantly covered with the insects.
They started to turn toward the road,
but sank Imply in the traces, whin-
neying wildly with pain.
The entire neighborhood was in
stantly aroused. A crowd collected
at a safe distance to watch the un-
usual event. No one dared at first
TO go to the rescue of the horses.

man, accused of operating a bucket
shop in Washington, was arrested in
New York on a charge of perjury.

w. Adler, whose removal to Washing
ton for trial is sought, Henry Altemus
Of Georgetown, o., once employed by

over the wire to Angelo; he revealed
the cipher code.
Louis Celia was arrested afterward.

A STORY told at police headquarters
IA by Clarence Davis of Glenallen,
Va, recalled to older members of the
force the day when confidence men
had full sway here. The Virginian
related that three men had inveigled
him into matching twenty-five-cent
pieces in a room at the Raleigh hotel,
and that they had disappeared, one of
them taking $45S belonging to him.
When Davis reached the city and
he registered at a hotel near John
Marshall place and Pennsylvania ave
nue., he was seated on the coping at
the northwest corner OF Pennsylvania
avenue and 7th street when a strang
or spoke to him. He did not hesitate
to tell the stranger he was from near
Richmond, and the latter said he was
acquainted with people in Richmond.
The Virginian informed the strang-
er that he was thinking of going to
New York, and that he was a brick
layer by trade.
$50 am I a bricklayer," the stranger
said, land I'm out of work"

FIRE T,o u.ou, go. ,,...os .uo.,n,
among amateur firefghters of the gov
ernment printing office one afternoon
recently. The fire brigade is said to
consist of about a dozen laborers.
Really there was no fire about the
big printing office, save in the engine
room furnaces and under the smelling
pots.
Some one high in authority at the
printery had read a newspaper ac-
count of a disastrous cOnfiagration in
the west. The story of the blaze put
the notion in his head to resurrect a
general order of several years
standing which provides for a fire drill
at intervals.
1t was near to the hour for closing
down "the works." 4:30 o'clock, when,
the edict went forth that the fire bri-
gade was to assemble quickly and
from the new building attack an i'm

ture across the alley, which separates
the new from the old

THE lone policeman who stands

Washington was making his rounds
placidly when there dawned upon his
Mortified mind the fact that horse
was standing with his fore feet upon
the District buildings own sidewalk
The horse was hitched to a two
seated surrey. Upon seat of the
surrey sat a gentleman with broad
black hat
"Get that horse off the sidewalk =
said the policeman.
IF you want this horse to get off
that sidewalk you put him off your
self, you" The remainder of the
sentence was more in the way of ex-
pletive than explanation.

Cause of Arrest

And then there followed a contro-
versy. 1t was heated, to use q we'll
worn but perfectly good phrase, and
in the end the policeman hoped into
the buggy and took the broad-hatted
gentleman around to police station
No. 1, where it became evident that
the prisoner was southerner and
was being charged with profanity
and lots of it, varied, variegated, lurid,
personal and original.
The southern gentleman kept it go
ing to some extent even while he was
being examined at No. 1, but he did
quit in time to let them know that he
was not the owner of the horse
About this time hatless, breath
less real estate agent rushed out of
the District building.
Somebody's run off with my horse
and buggy! Where did they go?" he
shouted
Meantime No. l had managed to
cool the southern gentleman to a state
where he would disgorge S. as col
lateral, the price of his profanity. And
all this time no one had found out
that the southern gentleman was not
the owner of the horse at all.
