ESQ of Swinburne to keep up his pose as a per-
secuted man though his pockets were full OF
money. Englishmen were still greedily listen
ing to talk about the famous figures of eigh-
teenth century France. Hobhouse does not for
get to insert in his diary his friend w. r
Spencer's description of Necker sitting In a
corner of Versailles while the Parisians were
attacking the palace. He was bteH poHdfc.
and held a great pocket handkerchief to his
eyes. Spencer heard the unhappy Queen say
to him, What are we to do? Speak. say a
word; it depends on YOU" Not a word said
Necker.
Among the entries dealing with Napoleon is
Count Lavalettes curious assertion that when
the Emperor Alexander came into Paris. In 1914.
he had resolved not to treat with Napoleon. but
had not resolved that young Napoleon should
not reign. He consulted Talleyrand. who was
beset by all the old noblesse to ask for the
Bourbons, but he did not do so. and not word
was said in their favor: and Alexander hesi-
tated, until day, whilst in conversation with
two French marshals. aide camp came in

what he had heard, and said. What do you say
to that, gentlemen" They said nothing. but that
night Alexander published the proclamation de-
clarng the dethronement of the Napoleon dy-
nasty" General LalIemand told Hobhouse that
in July, 1915 he the bearer of a request to
Napoleon from the French army to put himself
at their head. He reached MaImaison to find
that Napoleon had been gone only two hours
Concerning the sangfroid of NapoIeons antag-
onist, the Duke of Wellington, Hobhouse has
many anecdotes. There is the story of his going
to bed at Brussels after hearing of the French
advance and appointing his next days head
quarters at Quatre-Bras. They presently wax
ened him with the intelligence that the French
had taken Charleroi. He jumped out of bed and
seized his map. "Ah taken Charleroi" he said
Il dare say they have Well 1 have done all

Hobhouse's attachment to Byron is artlessly
revealed in all its noble loyalty in these VOL
umes. 1t survived many hurts at the hands Of
the poet, who in certain moods had something
of a boys wayward cruelty. mo man ever
lived who had such devoted friends" wrote
Hobhouse after Byrons death. His power of

such as one ever knew possessed. No hu-

unreasonable men," But when the course of
events took him out of Parliament and out Of
office it was with difficulty that he adjusted
himself to a round of occupations, invented or
acquired; and it was with genuine satisfaction
that he returned to office without conditions, as
a member of Melbourne's Cabinet of 1884. He
notes his belief that he was the first man not
in Parliament who ever had q Cabinet place
offered to him. His pleasure in the work of
government, by the way, was not shared by all
his colleagues of the period with which he deals,
He describes Lord Althorp-"the pure, the i'm

dinner table chat of Sir John SWinburne. Sir
John was on his way to Berlin in 1886 when a

14-YEAR OLD GIRL GETS
FORTUNE OF S28,SS8

New York.--Edna Dorothy Killian
IA years old, has received a verdict
from a jury in the circuit court of
Hudson county by which she receives
the estate of DIR. George c. Grund
amounting to S26.SS6.35. The doctor
was 50 years old, and had been a
boarder in the home of the Killians
for 23 years. There was no WILL and
no written contract as to the inheri-
tance; merely the testimony of Wit
nesses to confirm a verbal contract he
had made with the mother of the
young girl.
The fortunate girl is the daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Killian. Kill
liam was formerly Water Registerer
of Hoboken. About three years ago
Grund, who had no relatives in the
country, said to Mrs. Killian:
IF you care for me till die or un-
til you die as you have taken care
of me for years l will give what mon
ey l have to your daughter"
! At the time 1t was thought Mrs.
Killian would be the one to die first
| 1t was known that Grund had a little
money The general belief was that
he perhaps had a $4,000. In addition

would do II she took care of him

ment he had made.
He died year and half ago. anC
much to the surprise of Hoboker
friends, when the public administra
tor took charge of the estate he founC
it more than $4,000.
He had found relatives in Ger
many to whom he was about to di
vide in accordance with the laws o
the state when the suit was brough
in behalf of Miss Killian.
The jury heard the case and sus
tanned the claim that Mrs. Killial
and Grund had entered into a con
tract. His remaining in the hous
until he died was taken as proof tha
she had fulfilled her part of it, an,
treated him kindly and cared for hin
until death.

Investigates at Scene of Arlington
Disaster and Decides No Culpabil-
ity Can Be Attached to Any Per-
son.

The recent disastrous freight
wreck at Arlington was unavoidable,
according to the following report of
the investigating committees:
Arlington. Ore, June IT, 1910.
Report of board of INJURY. De-
railment of freight train Extra 264S,
west, about one and one-ha1f miles
east of Arlington, Oregon, June 16,
1910.
Extra 264s west, AZ cars, consist
ing Of 13 loads and "a empties, 1860
tons, was derailed one and one-half
miles east of Arlington, June 18th;
locomotive tender and 16 cars were
derailed, damaging equipment to ex-
tent of s2500, track 5000 and con-
tents of cars 5000. Brakeman
Sproule badly injured and Fireman
Hinkle slightly injured. Two tramps
(names yet unknown) badly injured.
Derailment caused by a large rock
which had rolled down from side cut
and stopped on track between rails.
Extra 264S west ran over same, de-
railing engine tender and 16 cars.
There was no reason to expect rock
to be falling at this point-if they did
1t could not be expected that they
would reach the track. On account
of curvature in track engineer could
not see rock until he was practically
upon it-too late to stop the train be-
fore striking.
From testimony of witnesses ex-
amined, and from the evidence secur-
ed at the scene of the accident, the
board is of the opinion that the ac-
cident was unavoidable. that proper
precautions were taken, track prop
erly patrolled, and the board exoner-
ates the railroad company and en-
ployes from all blame.

FOUR FISHERMEN
ARE DROWNED
(By United Press Leased Wire)

MEADOWDALE, Wash, Oct. A.
The bodies of four fishermen
drowned during the storm on Puget
sound were recovered today. The
victims were J. F. Graham, 20, Bal
lard; Paul Burkland, 10, Meadow
dale; Ben Larsen, %, Everett, and
Peter Haram, IS, Ballard.
The men started out in launch
to pick up the fish traps set out
and owned by Graham last night.
The first knowledge of their death
was gained by passengers on a
Great Northern train who saw Ha-
rams body lying on the beach
where it had floated in. The bodies
of Larsen and Berkland and Ora
ham were found later.
The missing links in the tragedy
were supplied by Joe Nyemoto, the
Japanese cook in the shack at the
trap. He says in the night he
thought he heard someone calling
for help, but it was very faint and
he was no tsure. Hearing the call
again, he rose up and then a cat
made some noise, and he came to
the conclusion that it was the cat
that had disturbed him. In the
morning he got up and prepared
breakfast for the men, who never
returned.
