Manager of Firm CANDLES Away
a Fortune

BERLIN, May IA curious example
of the tyranny Of the gambling passion
was afforded by a case that came be-
force the Berlin courts recently. The
defendant, Fritz Kluge, defrauded the
big engineering firm of Arthur Kop-
pei, whose Berlin branch he managed,
of nearly $125,000, and lost practica lily
the entire sum at the gambling table.
1t was his custom to travel all the
way to Paris for the sake of three
hours baccarat. He spent the greater
part OF the Is hour journey working
out the possibilities of a system" he
had invented. Sometimes he made as
many as 700 or 500 calculations while
en- route.
Like so many incurable gamblers,
Kluge is exceedingly superstitious All
his peculations were carried out in
sums divisible by three, and he in
formed the judge that this was a
temperamental necessity to him. He
never spent money that he had won.
as he believed that it brought luck in
the play, and on one occasion he and
lady companion Travelled all the way
from Paris to Berlin without eating
rather than touch sum of $4,000

the baccarat table had brought him in
All the time that he was robbing his
employers he carried a prayer book in
his pocket and prayed regularly three

was very backward scholar, but was
promoted with extraordinary rapiditv
by Koppels, and enjoyed the complete
confidence of the firm, which regarded

GIRL SMUGGLER'S
HEROISM in Vain
Young Woman Makes Desperate
Struggle to Save Her
Brothers Life

GENEVA. May THE heroic EFFORT
of a girl smuggler to save the life
of her older brother after holding him
13 hours on rope over a precipiee is
reported from Bellinzona
Mile. Poretti, aged Is. and her broth
er. aged 23, left Swiss territory to
cross the Baldisco pass carrying con-
traband goods into Italy. On the sum
nit they were overtaken by a violent
snowstorm-which has ragged through
out southern SwitzerIand-and were
soon in deep snow.
The Porettis rOped themselves. the
young man leading. They lost their
way. and while attempting to find the
path Poretti fell through the snow into
crevasse, into which he nearly.
dragged his sister, who, however.
planted her ice ak in the snow and
withstood the shock.
Early the following morning several
smugglers crossing the pass from
Swiss territory into Italy found the
young girl near the ordinary route
taken by smugglers and recognized her
at once, as she belonged to a snug
gler's family and lived a ChiavenHa.
The smugglers at once drew up the
brother. but found that he had died
during the Is hours his sister had held
him by the rope He had received Sc
we're injuries in the head and his body
was frozen.
The smugGlers carried down the
brave girl. who was almost uncon-
scious, as well as the dead body of her
brother, and notified the Porettf family
at Chlavenna- On reaching the valley
the girl had recovered sufficiently from
her terrible experience to explain that
she and her brother had spoken for
several hours after the accident and at
last he had said that he felt nothing
and wanted to sleep.
A warm night followed the snow
storm, or two dead bodies would have
been found. Under the great strain
the rope had cut through the girls
clothes and her waist was bleeding

Several insurance companies are en-

COAL WAGON DRIVER
SCORNS AUTOS HONk
Finds Safety or Top of Slow
Moving Mountain

Has it ever occurred to YOU" said
Mr.. Gwilk to the New York Sun chron-
icler, that you never heard of an auto
mobile running over coal wagon? No,
sir, not once. You might search the
files of all the newspapers in the coun-
try for the last 10 years, since automo-
biles came into anything like common
use, and not find case, not single
case.
II am referring now, you understand.

This wagon loaded would weigh about
weigh about 1900 apiece, making the
weight of the entire outfit approxi-
mately II tons, practically a mountain

And you never heard of an automo-
bile running into one of these big coal
wagons. did you? Never. And why
don't they? They run into or over
Chickens, pigs and human beings
Why don't they run into the seven ton
coal wagon? l will tell you. 1t is be-
cause it would bring trouble on them.
"A man is comparatively light and
soft yielding body; they can run into
a man and run over him or bunt him
aside without injury to the machine
and without much jar or inconvenience
of any sort, but not so with the seven
ton coal wagon. To run full tilt into
the impregnably solid coal wagon
would be to smash the automobile all
to flinders, bust things all to pieces and
scatter coal all over the occupants of
the machine; it would mess things up
generally and it might kill or MAIN
some of the people in the automobile.
All these things the automobilists
know very well, and so they look out
for themselves. They never run into
the seven ton coal wagon, showing that
they can avoid collisions when they
want to.
Noting the immunity of the big coal
wagon gives me an idea. AS 1t is now
being simply man afoot, have to jump
on every crossing whenever l hear the

AT VERY GREAT HEIGHT
TEMPERATURE GOES UP
After. Seven Miles Warm Belt
Seems to Circle Globe

The exploration of the higher por-
tions of the atmosphere by means of
apparatus attached to balloons and
kites promises to revolutionize many
of the ideas hitherto held regarding
the movements and other changes OF
the upper air.
One of the most interesting results
is the discovery of a layer of isothermal
air. Up to a height of about seven
miles there is a steady decrease in
temperature, as one might expect. but
beyond that height either no percepti-
bic change is recorded or there is an
inversion of temperature-the ther-
mometers for time showing a dis
tinct rise.
These conditions have been found to
exist over all parts of the globe in
which experiments have been made. II
has also been discovered that at a great
height the temperature of the air is
often much colder in equatorial than in
polar regions.

EXILED SULTAN NOW
IN PERFECT HEALTH
Abdul Hamid Begins to Enjoy
Life at Salonica

Abdul Hamid the exiled sultan of
Turkey, is said to be in perfect health.
He has now, according to the Throne
and Country" got accustomed to the
life in the Villa AIlatini near Saloniea,
and has expressed the wish that he
may be permitted to end his days
there.
The arrival in Constantinople of
Prince Abdurrahman and Princess Cha
die, Aiche, and Kefie, the son and
daughters of Abdul Hamid, gave rise
to the disconcerting rumors concerning
his fallen majesty. But their arrival
in the capital is thus explained: the
prince intends to complete his educa-
tion, while his sisters, who were be-
trothed to officers in the Turkish army
before the, sultan was deposed, ere
preparing for their marriages.
Now that his children have left him,
Abdul Hamid has had his pension
greatly reduced. He was formerly al
lowed 1920 month. Henceforth he
will receive only f450.
