''FOUR-F|FTHs OF
FAILURES DUE TO
INHERENT FAULTS
Thomas L. Mason Makes Prin.
cipaI Address at Bloomfield
Board of Trade Banquet.

Thomas l.. Mason. of Glen Ridge,
editor of Life, made the principal ad-
dress last night at the annual banquet
of the Bloomfield Board of Trade in
Central Hall, hat town. Mr.. Masson's
talk. though interspersed with humor-
Gus stories, was a serious review OF
business conditions, with the causes OF
failures.
He took his speech from the text,
Long years of experience have demon
strated to the seekers after the under
lying causes of business failures the
fact that, generally speaking, four
ffths OF all failures are due to faults
inherent in the person, while about
.one-fifth are due to causes outside and
beyond his control"
He pleaded that the father take care
of his boy. that he give him about an
hour a day of bis personal attention
and sen him forth INTO the world with
the benefit OF his own knowledge and
experience. The public system, he
said. never rises above the standard set
for it in the home.
All that a school car do. he con-
tinued, is to reinforce what a boy gets
into his system in his own home. h
uilAtietiCt DCt Ntti
greatness, he said, is only the difference
in vision. He cautioned his hearers to
always be careful. not to have TOO
many irons in the fire, otherwise, he
said. they were liable to bust them
selves trying TO make good.
Addresses were also made by Timothy
p. Edwards and the Rev. Edgar 5.
Wiers. of Montclair. Frederick M.
Davis. president of the board, who
was POSTMASTER. made the address of
welcome. He predicted that a park ana
public playground would be established
facts soon.
TIE general trend Of the various
addresses was the Improvement of the
town. Emphasis was laid upon the fact
that an agreement had been reached
between the. Town Council and the
L-acknvanna railroad for improvements
along The Bloomfield branch.

BARBOUR DON'T CARE.

Georgetown, Colo, April 10
Sheriff Cunningham is wondering
how long he will have in custody
Percy p. Barbour, the we'll known
mining engineer of Idaho Springs,
who was ordered to Jail three weeks
ago by Judge Hobbs for failure to
pay $50 alimony to his divorced wife
Since Barbour has been In durance
he has not made an effort to secure
freedom and seems to be perfectly
contented, putting in his time reading
daily papers and studying Esperanto.
II is probable that when e. l.. Re
gennitter, attorney for Barbour, re-
covers from recent operation, appli-
cation will be made to the supreme
court for a writ of habeas corpus. 1t
was upon the advice of Regennitter
that Barbour has refused to pay the
amount alleged due. Almost daily a
number of Idaho Springs residents,
friends of Barbour, come here to visit
Barbour He is we'll supplied with
choice cigars and fruit, showing the
esteem in which he is held in his
home city. Sheriff Cunningham says
that he is the best satisfied man ever
confined in the county Jail

Physical Conditions.

Berlin, Sept. 21.-Victory in the
next great naval war will be won by
the people possessing the greatest
store of healty nerve power. That is
the conviction of the German depart
ment, according to the Marine Rund-
schau.
The naval authorities, II says, are
devoting special attention To the
question of keeping I'm perfect
health the nerves of officers and men
on warships. Care is taken that the
conditions in which the crews live
shall be as perfect as possible from
a hygienic point of view; that the
food is appetizing, varied and nutri-
tious: that the men take proper exer-
else. have the necessary rest and rec
reation and are kept in good spirits.
The ships doctors are also in
structed to watch very carefully for
any sign of nervous strain. and
when such i'm found the cause is to
be thoroughly inquired into. Every
thing possible Is done to insure a
sufficiency of sound and healthy
men.

Mrs. John Saus, Her Two Daugh-
ters aud Son, Murdered at
Their Home by Man
Bent on Robbery
MANY LOOKING FOR SUSPECT
Husband on Returning Home Finds
Body of Son in Yard and Bodies
of Others in the House-Coun-
try-Side Aroused.

westchester. Pa. Sept. 21.-A
search is being made today by the
police of all towns in this vicinity for
the man suspected of numbering
Mrs John Saus. her two small daugh-
ters, and son, at their home at Byers.
Pa, IL miles from here some time
yesterday.
The suspect formerly boarded at
the Saus home and it is believed rob-
berry was the motive. The skulls of
the woman and her children were
crushed as though by an axe or heavy
club.
The bodies were discovered by the
husband and father upon his return
from work last night He found his
son, Charles. aged z, unconscious in
the yard OF his home. and Mortified he
picked up the boy and rushed into the
house. He almost collapsed when he
found the bodies of his wife. 80 years
old, and two daughters, four years
and sixteen months, respectively.
II is believed Mrs. Saus and her
daughters were struck down and the
house then ransacked. The boy was
at school, 1t is thought, while this
was being done and he encountered
the murderer when he returned home.
II is believed the boy recognized the
intruder, who attacked him. The boy
was taken TO the hospital where he
afterwards died.
The Nervousness of the crime has
aroused the entire countryside and
searching parties. heavily armed. are
securing the hills i'm this vicinity OF
the village for a fellow workman of
Saus. who boarded with him, to see
what light he may be able to shed on
the mystery. This man was not at
work yesterday and he cannot be
found. A small bank account con-
tanning some money and the husbands
handbook are also missing.

BATHTUB MURDER
CASE IN COURTS
STATE MAY DROP CASE AGAINST
MRS. CAROLINE 3. MARTIN
AND MRS. MARY w,
SNEAD.

Newark, N. j., Sept, 21.-The case
against Mrs. Caroline B. Martin and
Mrs. Mary w. Snead, who, together
with Miss Virginia o. Wardlaw.
whose death from voluntary starva-
ton occurred at the House of Deten-
tion on August ~, were indicted for
the murder of Mrs. Ocey Wardlaw
Martin Snead, the victim of the fam
GUS "Bathtub murder" was called for
trial before the New Jersey Supreme
Court in this city today. 1t was
known that the State had the strong
est case against Miss Virginia O.
Wardaw and 1t was rumored that
owing to the death of Miss Wardlaw
the prosecution would probably aban-
don the case against the two other
defendants, but this supposition
proved to have been wrong The pro-
secution, though foied In convicting
Miss Wardlaw, showed no disosition
to give up the case against the two
other defendants and there is every
reason to believe that they will be
given speedy trial.
Mrs. Ocey Snead was found in the
bathtub of the house No. SO West
Fourteenth street, Sast Orange, on
November 20, 1909, and so peculiar
were the circumstances surrounding
hire death that the authorities began
TO investigate, to ascertain the true
facts i'm the case. In the afternoon of
November 29 some woman called up
the police of East Orange, asking for
the address of the coroner When the
woman was Informed that there were
no coroners i'm New Jersey she inform
ed the police that a woman had COM
mitted suicide in No. SO West Four
teenth street. DIR. III. M. Simmons,
one of the deputy county physicians
was sent to the house and found the
body of the young woman in the bath
tub. The tub was full OF water and
the entire body of the young woman
was submerged. At first the physi-
clan did not suspect that there was
anything wrong, especially as he
found, pinned To the clothes of tho
woman, note stating that she had
committed suicide. Closer investiga-
ton convinced him, however, that the
| woman had been dead more than
twenty four hours. AS the bathroom
was the only one i'm the house it SEEM
ed strange that the body had not been
found sooner. The explanations Of
fered by the three women in the
house did not satisfy the phIsician
aud upon his report a careful investi-
CATION was begun by the police
authorities
