THE ROBBINS CIRCUS
Not A Weak Point All Feature Acts
Coming Sent. Is

Good from start to finish. Not a
weak part. A steady succession of
really "all feature acts" Such were
the performances of the Frank A.
Robbins circus, which exhibited on the
Beasley lot yesterday afternoon and
evening. The performances We're at
tended by audiences which well filled
the large tents and vigorously ap-
plauded the acts. The band concert
in the evening on the corner of Main
and Middle streets was an excellent
musical production.
No prettier act was ever seen in a
circus than that of Belle Clark and
her dancing horse Duke. The four
trained fan-tailed pigeons and the lit
tie dog, with the dancing horse, make
up a combination that is really mar
velous in the response to the COM
mands of Miss Clark.
Hillary Long, the man who walks
on his head, has fine act. He bal
ances on his head in trapeze, smokes
and drinks there, swings and spins on
it in the same posture, and finally
walks" down flight of steps on his
head.
The Hocum family-father, mother,
daughter and little daughter, in their
wire-walking exhibition and later in
the program the father and two daugh-
tiers : in their skillful driving and
equestrian acts were good.
james Burnes is some performer
himself when it comes to wire-walk-
ing. He walks, dances, parades on
stills and rides bicycle on the wire.
Professor Gearhart shows the latest
thing in Craftsmanship. Six beautiful
black stations obey the mandates of
their master with the promptness and
spontaneity with which a squad of SOL
diers obey their superior officers.
There We're a number of other good
acts which made fine program. The
circus was the best that ever gave an
exhibition in Chelsea. Michigan

Ore Deposits.

Men sometimes dream Of enormous
wealth stored deep in the earth, below
the reach OF miners, but experts aver
that there is little or no ground to
believe that valuable metallic deposits
lie very deep In the earth's crust Such
deposits, it is said, are made by under
ground waters, and owing to the pres
sure on the rocks at great depths the
waters are confined to shell near the
surface. With few exceptions, ore de-
posits become too lean to repay work
ing below 5000 feet. Nine mines in
ten. taking the world as whole. are
poorer in the second thousand feet
than in the first, and poorer yet in the
third thousand.

HEIGHT AND WEIGHT.
Their Relation to Mans Chances For
Long Life.

Their Relation to Mans Chances For
Long Life.
The ideal insurance risk, from the
point Of view of height, is said to be
from five feet seven inches to five feet
nine inches tall. According to the Ma
tional Fraternal congress, longevity
and build have a close relation; the
greater the variation In height from
the above figure the greater the risk.
Brockbank says that tall men are
not so long lived as their brothers
whose heads are nearer to the ground.
Men who are both tall and stout are
not as good risks as stout men Of me-
dunn or below medium height, says q
writer in American Medicine. They do
not bear acute illness so well, and ac-
cidents to them are likely to be more
severe.
Risks over the allotted limit Of
weight are especially liable to dia-
betes, heart affections, apoplexy, govt
diseases of the kidneys and arterio-
sclerosis; excessive eating and abuse Of
alcohol are common among this class.
1t is stated that stout men under forty
are worse risks than those over forty
and under sixty, and that men who
were unduly fat while they were boys
are considered poor risks, especially If
the tendency is hereditary.
Stout men are better average risks
than their very thin brothers who are
liable to tuberculosis and disorders Of
the nervous system. But for even the
featherweight there is much consola-
ton. He bears acute illness better
than the heavyweight, and most Of
the people living beyond the allotted
threescore years and ten are of light
build. A slim, why, small framed man
is said to be a better risk that thin
but big boned one.

RIDING The BELLS.

Spectacular Fsats Of the Daring Ring.
ers Of Seville.
The ringing OF a bell Is not, as a
rule, a performance particularly trying
20 the nerves, but there Is one set OF
bel ringers the members Of which
must know no fear. for a moment OF
tremor would in all probability be for
them the moment OF death. They are
the bell ringers OF the Giralda. In Sc
vile.
When the city is to make merry on
feast days the ringers climb to the
belfry, and then by the aid of a rope
and steps cut In the wall of the tower
each mounts to the bell he is to ring
and stands astride the shoulder of the
brazen monster. Then be presses the
bell with his feet, holding on the cross
piece on which the mass OF metal is
swung.
Gradually the great bell sways to
the muscular movement OF the man
astride it until it acquires a momen-
tum that swings the hammer, first
gently and then with increasing force
as the sweep of the bell widens until
the air Is trembling from the giant
blows that strike the massive sides OF
the monster.
The mere vibration Of the atmos-
phere as the huge bells ring out would
be enough to make an Impractical
ringer turn dizzy and fall from his
perch. But this is not all, for many
bells are ringing In the belfry ct the
same time in obedience to the move
ments of their riders, and the din is
deafening.
Notwithstanding all this, the riders
bend and rise and fall with the action
Of the bells, now appearing to the OBJ
server from below to be In a horizon
tai position as the bell reaches the
limit of its swing and again riding
gracefully to an upright position as
the monster sways backward with an
other laundering note.
The most extraordinary part OF the
daring performance Is the sight Of a
bell ringer calmly swaying the bell
while it hangs far out of the belfry
over the city. for the outward swing
sends the counterpoise with the ringer
into space beyond the arch.-Success

ton day, and at that time Strong said:
II know why you arrested me. That
woman on the boardwalk told you"
Witness denied he called Strong a
jealous old.
He admitted telling Strong, You
killed your wife with that right hand"
He said he did not tell of the confess
sion at the hearing when Strong was
held for trial.
In order to show that his guilty con-
science led him to iniiscreet remarks,
the State placed a number of witnesses
on the stand, with whom Strong had
conversed after seeing the medium.
George N. Caswell, with whom Strong
left his wagon when he went to At
lantic City, talked with him on his
return and Strong said to him:
She told me something l dare not
tell anyone, not even the detectives.
l did not do it, though. If they want
to find GU any more they can do 1t
themselves (meaning the detectives).
To Samuel Cramer. a restaurant
keeper. he said:
They can get any more evidence
now; it lies between me-, my wife and
that woman Today l broke down ana
sweated terribly. There isn't any more
to find out"
This evidence was corroborated. De-
tective Frank p. Guyer, of Philadel
phia, who made the sensational Holmes
case arrest, was placed on the stand
and testified of his investigation, COW
ering practically the same grounds az
Baitzeli.
Guyer was present at the confession
made to the boardwalk medium. He
identified clothing worn by Strong,
showing blood stains.

MUNGLE TROLLEY BILL
GOES TO HOUSE TODAY.

A bill giving the Board of Works
the power to compel the trolley COM
pany to make half-mile connections
between existing tracks Will be intro
duced by Assemblyman MCGOWAN to-
day. This is the bill drawn up by
Commissioner Mungle, of the Board OF
Works, who acted as a private citizen.
Trolley Inspector Joseph Crawford
announced today that the plan for the
improvements that could be made if
the bill becomes a law were filed with
the State Board of Public Utility Com
missioners yesterday. These commits
sioners went over the ground in this
city last Friday. and expressed their
individual beliefs that the bill was
necessary to the welfare of the city.
This measure, If it is successful in
passing the houses, will permit the
Board of Works to order a connection
made in Washington street from the
library to Central avenue and from
Kinney street to Clinton avenue. This
would make it possible to take one or
two lines off Broad street and u them
through Washington as far as Clinton
avenue. The bill is also intended to
loop Military Park, which will be OF
great benefit to those who will use the
Pennsylvania short line, which will,
have a station at Saybrook place. Many
| other connections will be made possible
by this measure.

JONES
As EMBEZZLER
Continued from First Page,

way on February d5. Commissioner
Jones says that the charges against
him all grow out of her demise.
While he waited for bail he was not
taken to a cell, but spent the time
consulting with friends. He ~contented
himself with the statement that he
was not guilty and that he would
easily establish the fact.
The bond he gave amounts to $500.
1t consists of his realty holdings at
251-261 and 267 South Nineteenth street
and the houses at 129-131 Verona ave-
nue., in which he said he owned an
equity of more than 0,000.
Fergg procured his warrant for the
arrest of the commissioner from Judge
Hahn of the First Precinct Court, this
morning. He told the judge that back
in May OF 1910, when he was needing
money for the recuperation of his
brewery, he went to Jones n asked
him to negotiate a loan of $65, 00U, agree
ing to give him $4,000 commission. He
said that Jones. acting in his private
capacity as a lawyer. got the loan for
him from a Mrs. Carolina Powers, a
wealthy woman in New York, but

DEADLOCK NOT AFFECTED
BY ALBANY CAPITOL FIRE.
Perfunctory Vote of 46 Gives
Herman %, Sheehan A.

ALBANY, N. Y, March 29.-The ex-
pected crisis In the United States sena-
torial situation failed to develop today.
due In a Measure to the fire that swept
the Capitol, making its occupancy by
the Legislature impossible. The Demo
cratic caucus, which 1t was hoped
would select a compromise candidate
today, made no attempt to do SO, ad-
journing until $3.50 o'clock tonight.
The joint Assembly met in the
County Court chambers in the City
Hall, but 1t proved too small to accom-
modate the members of both houses, so
1t was agreed that the pairs which were
arranged on Friday and Saturday
should remain in force today, n a
perfunctory ballot was taken. at which
forty-six voted. John d. Herman polled
Just half the entire vote, the others
being scattered among several candi-
dates. William F. Sheehan received 4.
The Republicans planned to hold a
conference this afternoon to go owe
the situation, and So did the insurgents.
That the Democrats had not given up
hope of settling the deadlock this week
was indicated by the announcement of
Majority Leader Wagner, who declared
that the pairing would hold only today
and that tomorrow he expected to pro-
vide quarters in which TO hold the joint
session.
