There is everything on the Temple
theater stage this week from an ele-
phant to a petite dancing girl and a
diminutive comedian
The elephant and the horses and the
ponies In Gruber's circus will prove a
great act for the children to see, and
not a little for the "grown-ups" to

on their forces. Immediately after
Conway took charge. things came their
way at most gratifying pace. And
then, just three days before the cleo

organ Of Cook and the Independent

statement reading as follows:

There was q crowd Of fifty or sixty,

the day most threatening. The machine
had Just been overhauled and prepara-

But the laws of mechanics are no re-

never purchased a revolver from Bos-

only time she was ever in the store was

March 30, 1909, when Clerk Coffey
claimed he sold a revolver to woman.
She admitted putting her hand under
Hattie LIE Blanc's chin. but did not do
it roughly, and only to prevent the girl
from telling lies. She denied beating the
girl or that she showed her hands to
Mrs. Sampson with the remark that she
had hurt them whipping Hattie.
She said she knew Walter Gardner. who
testified for the defense, but denied ever
telling him that she had quarreled with
her husband, or that her husband had
made her sign papers. She never told
Gardner that she knew a man who was
going to kill Glover, and never talked
with Gardner about her husbands rela-
tons with Hattie.
She never called her husband vile
names in the presence of Gardner, she
said, and never made threats to do
her husband.
Mrs. Glover's testimony was not con-
cluded when the court adjourned until
Monday.

TYPHOID IS SUSPECTED
Another Midshipman Likely to Be
Sent to Hospital.

ANNAPOLIS, Nd. December 1o.-An-
other case of suspected typhoid has devel-
oped among the midshipmcn at the Ma
val Academy, and it is likely that the pa
tient will be sent to the hospital within
the next twenty-four hours. OF those
midshipmen who are patients at the Ma
val General Hospital several suffered
turns for the worse last night, and are
now more seriously ill than they were
yesterday.
Surgeon A. NJ. D. Mccormack, senior
medical officer at the academy. is in
Washington today. and it is understood
that he went to discuss the typhoid situa-
ton with his superiors there.
While the academy authorities still at
tribute the continued outbreak among the
midshipmen to the originally suspected
milk supply, the period of incubation for
germs from this source is admittedly
long.
Thus far twenty-eight cases have devel-
oped, not counting today's suspect.

SHOWS where KIDNAPERS
KEPT HIM A PRISONER
Little Michael Rizzo Taken Around
New York Until He
Locates Flat.

NEW YORK, December 1O.--Most of
today little Michael Rizzo was taken
about the city by detectives until he
pointed out to them the place In which
he was held prisoner by the kidnapers
who released him yesterday. His hazy
descriptions gave the detectives a gem
eral idea of the part Of town In which
he was held, but he did not recognize
his prison until after he had been taken
inside.
A fiat on the second floor was pad
locked. After an entrance had been
forced Michael pointed out the room in
which he had been held. 1t had been
stripped OF even the cheap Autographs
pasted on the wall. The house Is next
door to the building in which Giuseppe
Longo. kidnapped with Michael by the
same man, was held. The Police believe
they have broken up the band Of kid
napers and are on the trail of its chief.
Their belief is strengthened by the fact
that another child was returned today by
kidnapers.
Frank Petillo found his -year-old
daughter, Mary, wrapped in a blanket,
behind his house in Red Bank, n. j.
The girl was kidnapped October 20.
Five kidnapped children have been re-
covered In Or near New York this week.

Hughes May Not Be Chief Jus.

Be Made Tuesday.

The nominations which President TAFT

more than one usually we'll informed
quarter it was said last night that both
pending appointments to the court would
go to men not hitherto prominently men
toned in that connection.
1t is likely that the President will
greatly narrow his field of consultation
during the next thirty-six hours, and
that the result may be announced Mon
day.
1t was said last night to be practically
settled that Chairman Martin A. Knapp

1T is said, to Commissioner Prouty, but
he preferred his present position on the
commission.
What has come to be known as the
judicial slate" covering the nominate
for the Supreme Court and for the new
commerce court, has been the subject
of incessant and more or less excited
discussion in Washington during the past
week. 1t Is impossible to say in what
form the almost constant shift Of prob
abilities in the matter will crystalline at
last into action.
The only thing fairly certain is that,
whoever the nominees are to be, their
names will go to the Senate Monday or
Tuesday. This seems especially true of
the Supreme Court nominations: those
for the commerce court may be deferred
pending settlement as to the vacancy or
vacancies probably to be made by pro-
motion from the personnel of the inter-
state commerce commission.
