Booth Harrington Says Separation

New York, Oct. Booth Harrington,
the Indiana novelist and playwright, did
not seem at all surprised or disturbed in
his mental poise over the stories printed
in this mornings papers from Indianap-
oils that Mrs. Harrington, wearied of her
husbands eccentricities and inadaptabil-
ity to a staid home life, had determined
to set up an establishment OF her own
in which no place had been reserved for
her husband.
Mr.. Harrington was found at Prince
ton. where he had watched the football
team of his alma mater thrash the Villa
nova team.
Mr.. Harrington declared at the begin
ming that he did not know Of any suit
or action at law contemplated By HIS
wife. but stated that II Mrs. Harrington
saw 1T to bring any such suit he would
not offer opposition.
1T Is not the place of a man to resist

brought suit for the custody Of her grand
son, Baby Mckee, which threatens to
reopen the whole divorce case in which
her son and Mrs. Cornelia Baxter Tevis-
Mckee, his wife, figured. The child is
permitted to spend two days every week
with his grandmother. The remainder of
the time he is in the custody OF his
mother.
The French courts are loath to separate
mother and child unless it can be shown
that the mother is absolutely unfit to
have custody OF the infant. Mrs. H. Sell
lers Mckee, wife of the Pittsburg mil
lonaire, prominent in society, charity,
and church work, has made the plea
that the child cannot be brought up prop

SAMUEL c. MILLS
ENDS LONG CAREER
Venerable Jurist PassesAway
at 18th Milestone.

Samuel c. Mills, jurist, Mason, founder
OF the Order OF the Jonadabs, and for
thirty-four years acting Judge of the
Police Court, died at his home in the
Wellington yesterday afternoon as the
result of a stroke of paralysis, followed
by pneumonia. He had never fully re-
covered from the effects Of q railway
accident suffered four years ago.
On September 2, 1872, Mr.. Mills was
appointed acting judge in the Police
Court by a special act Of Congress. He
was the last justice of the peace in the
District, and when that Office was abol-
ished by Congress he was made a mu-
nicipal judge. Two years ago Congress
reduced the number OF municipal judges,
and Judge Mills fell victim to the prun-
ing because Of his advanced age.
The veteran jurist was born seventy
eight years ago to-day in this city, and
was educated in the public schools. He
received his law training under the tute-
lage OF Walter LennOX and Asbury
Lloyd, both of whom were prominent
lawyers. He served during the civil war
and in 1865 was honorably DISCHARGED
from the army. He was a member Of
the Grand Army OF the Republic and
Judge advocate Of the Department of the
Potomac. He was a thirty-second de-
gree Mason, a member Of Harmony
Lodge, and Columbia Commandery,
Knights Templars.
Justice Mills is survived by a wife,
daughter, seven grandchildren, and one
great-grandchild, all Of whom are resi-
dents Of this city.
Funeral services will be held from
Lees undertaking establishment to-mor-
row afternoon. The obseQuies will be
under the direction Of the Masonic fra
ternity, and interment viii be in Con-
gressional Cemetery.

Thomas A. Edison. the inventor, who,
with Mrs. Edison, his son Theodore and
his daughter Madeline, arrived from Eu-
rope to-day on the liner Amerika.
II must say that after my visit abroad
I am satisfied with my own country. Our
party toured Germany, France, and swift
zerland by automobile. and had oppor-
tunity to inspect the wondrous towns

A storm OF protest and denial was
aroused by a cable interview with MI
Edison on September g. in which he was
as criticising German ideas or
art, architecture, machinery business
methods, lack of inventiveness and origi-
naHty, and facility for copying ma

The attributed statement that aroused
the mightiest form OF contradiction was
this:

don't care how II Is done. Their methods
