He departed in an automobile with
his physician, DR.. Elwood r. Kirby.
and rode downtown to do some Christ

His release from the hospital was not
brought about until the consent of AS
sistant. Superintendent of Police
O'Leary was obtained.
Mr.. Clapp did not see his wife. whom
he accused of having attemted to kill
him, because, it was said, she was out
of the city yesterday.
When she returns to Philadelphia, 1t
was said, there will be a meeting, which
is expected to end in a reconciliation
or, at least, an agreement not to carry
the Girard ayenu shooting into the

DUKE OF ABRUZzI WANTS TO
FLY TO THE NORTH POLE.

LONDON, Dec. 20.-The quest of the
North Pole by means of ~aeroplanes is
said by the Rome correspondent of the
Central News to be the ambition of
Duke d'Abruzzi, the alleged fiance of
Miss Katharine Elkins. The duke is
now on his way to America, the cor
respondent says to confer with Com
mander Peary, d~iscoverer of the pole,
regarding the feasibility of an aero
plane dash to the farthest North.
Aviator Cagno, one of the leading
italian birdmen, will accompany the
duke should the daring plan be at
tempted One will use a Farman BIZ
plane and the other a Bleriot non
plane, each machine having a carry
ing capacity of two passengers and a
large amount of fuel.
Ten years ago Duke d'Abruzzi led a
polar expedition to latitude Sc degrees
n SO minutes north, setting a record
up to hat time. He also assembled
Mt. ST. Elias, in Alaska, and has ex-
plored the Himalayas. His present am
bition is looked Upon as the most dar-
ing ever undertaken, and it is be-
lieved that Peary will give him much
encouragement.

R. r. MUST DO THE MILK
LOADING FOR THE FARMERS

BURLINGTON, Dec. 20.-Railroads
and transportation companies in New
! Jersey must have sufficient employees
on milk trains to load the milk at rural
depots, according to an important de-
cision handed down by the State Public
Utilities Commission yesterday in the
case of members of the Milk Deal
ers' Association of Burlington County
against the Union Transportation Com
pany, lessee of the Pemberton and
Heightstown railroad.
Every contention of the farmers, who
objected to the peremptory order of the
railroad that shippers must put their
milk cans aboard, is upheld by the
commissioners. and hundreds of dairy
men who have been compelled to keep
their men at the milk stations until
early morning to see that their cans
got on the trains are elGted over the
decision.

NEW ELECTED MAYOR MADE
TO MOVE ON BY OFFICER.
Obedient Burlington Cop Gives
Orders to Chief Executive.

BURLINGTON, Dec. 20.-Mayor Far
ner, who has successfully pushed a
crusade against street corner loafing,
was himself given the 'move-on" yes
terday by an obedient patrolman. The
city executive recovered from his sur
prise in time to compliment the po-
liceman.
Complaints came to the police some
weeks ago that professional loafers had
become q nuisance at street corners in
the business section. Mayor Farmer
ordered the police to politely enforce
the ordinance.
Stopping to talk to an acquaintance
at Broad and High streets, the mayor
absentmindedly halted within he re-
stricted area. Five minutes later a
hand tapped him on the shoulder and
officer Regain requested the mayor to
kindly move out to the curb. The
mayor moved.

SHOOTS WRONG MAN, WHO
RECEIVERS Sill PER SHOT.

COUDERSPORT, Pa, Dec. 20.-When
you shoot a man three times in the legs
in Potter county the ends of justice are
apparently met if you liquidate at the
fiat rate of 81 per shot.
II December our here the case
against Fred Cornish was on the calen-
dar. Cornish, who had separated from
his wife, hid under the porch of her
abode, that he might better syp on her
conduct. One night along came Israel
Young, looking for his daughter, who
was calling on Mrs. Cornish, and when
Young came out of the house Cornish
let the former have three punctures in
his leg. Young naturally resented such
familiarity, but the matter was settled
with the consent of the district attor-
ney, it is said, by Cornish paying
Young $33 and costs.
