TILTED AUNT AND
 TOOK NIECE
ELoPINa COUPLE ARRESTED AT DEPOT ON TELEGRAM
 FROM FATHER.

NEW YORK, March f. - Stopped by a telegram, Miss Eva Dennison and Emil Hottinger, who eloped from Rexville, N Y, were arrested at the Erie railway station in Jersey City. The girl returned to her home with her father, George Dennison, the postmaster of ReXville.
 Miss Dennison is 19 years old. Hot tinger Is 27 and lives at 46 West SiXty-flfth street.
 According to the story they told their meeting and attempted elope- ment were the result of romance.
 There appeared in the newspapers of New York a little more than a year ago, they said, an advertisement for a wife The man who advertised was Hottinger, who states he is a cashier at Martins Broadway and Twenty seventh street, but at that place they know nothing of him.
 According to Miss Dennison this advertisement was answered by her aunt, Miss Sarah Nixon, of Rexville, who is 35 years old and the sister-in- law of Postmaster Dennison A cor respondence began which lasted un- til three months ago.
 About the 1st of December Hot tinger, by arrangement, went to Rexville to visit Miss Nixon. When he made his first call Miss Nixon's l9-year-old niece, Miss Eva Dennison, was in the room. Miss Dennison Is attractive and vivacious and Hottin- gers call had not lasted many min utes before he came to the coEclu- sion that he would rather have Miss Dennison than her maiden aunt He remained In Rexville for week and before that time was up Miss Dennison had become impressed with Hottinger. When Hottinger returned to New York the correspondence with Miss Nixon was discontinued and a correspondence with Miss Den nison began.
 Hottinger decided to make an, other trip to Rexville. He went to Postmaster Dennison and told him l he wanted to marry Miss Dennlson instead of Miss Nixon. Dennison said "No."
 Hottinger came back to New York but the correspondence was contin ued. Last week Hottinger again went to Rexville, but he did not call | at the DennlSOn nome. instead ne met Miss Dennison downtown and they planned an elopement. Then Hottinger returned to New York and later went back to Rexville.
 Miss Dennison dressed and told her mother she was going out for walk. She met Hottinger as per ar rangement. They boarded a train of the Erie for New York.
 A friend of the Dennison family who knew something of the status of affairs, saw Hottinger and the gir get on the train and lost no time 1T notifying the Dennisons.
 Detective Currie of Jersey went to the Erie railroad station there when the train arriv-d, and had nc trouble, from the description fur n;shed him, in picking out the pair

Get all the good there is today; Don't fret about tomorrow; There's trouble round us all the
 time,
 What need is there to borrow The wise man gets what joy he
 can.
 And leaves the fVvl to his folly, He knows too much to waste his life In glooI and melancholy. Look on the bright side every time, Don't waste your days repining. When any cloud looks dark and dull, Turn out the silver lining. Be wise! Be cheerful, bright and
 glad,
 Leave the fool to his folly, And let your motto be: Cheer up. Your rule of life: Be jolly!"

WIRELESS HELPS
 DETECTIVES
GERMAN BOY PLACED IN IRONS ON A STEAMER IN MID
 OCEAN.

NEW YORK, March 16. - The Ions Ur Lne wireless enueu a man hunt here today with the arrest of Julian SuCholewski, a fugitive German boy of 19 years, charged with murder. He reached Hoboken in irons on board the steamer Zie. en from Bremen 12 hours behind the
 liner St. Louis, which had brought
 into port his pursuer, Otto BusdOrf, a Berlin detective, who won a trans Atlantic chase against four-day handicap. Sucholewski is in the Tombs tonight on charge of mur- der preferred by the German consul. He denies all knowledge of the crime
 The chase started in Myslowitz Silesia, a small town on the Russian border. On December 21 last if is charged, Sucholewski and two com panions slew Frank AXiel. cashier of the town bank, after he had been decoyed into opening the safe with request to change q bill of large denominatiCn. The aSsassins fled with $500 across a tiny stream to Russian territory. Six weeks later SucholewsN is alleged to have rJ- turned to his former lodgings in Myslowitz, and the police were mo- flied. Here policeman and the alleged assassin fought runnin" pistol duel, and the policeman fell pierced by bullets as Suchoicwsid es- capped. Busdorf, the Berlin man hunter. took the trail and followed his quarry over a route that turn ed and twisted throughout Europe 10 Bremen. There he found that his man was four days out on the At lantic. Busdorf hastened to South amptCn and caught the fast St. Louis just as the liner was leaving port.
 Busdorf not only beat the Ob- ject of his chase into port, but re ported that, through the aid of the wireless, he had already secured the arrest on the Zieten of 2 young Russian named Zogclowski who is charged with the murder of four persons in Mislowitz, Russia. Bus dorf declared his belief that an al lcgod pal" of Zogolowski, Bernard by name, accused of complicity in the crimes, was also on board, and that he would be able to identify and apprehend him on the arrival cI the Zieten.
 The Zieten left Bremen four days before the St. Louis sailed from Southampton.

OF SCHENK
 SHOOTING
CHICAGO WOMAN CoNFESSES AND IS HELD ON MURDER
 CHARGE.

CHICAGO. March 20. Mrs. Charles Schenk. who confessed she shot her husband Saturday morning after night or revelry, today was held to the grand jury on charge of murder by the coroners jury. She will remain under the surveillance of the police until after the funeral of Schenk tomorrow, after which she will be committed to the county jail.
 The discovery of second bullet found in a register on the second floor put an entirely new phase to the shooting. according 10 the police and gave them the theory that Mrs. Schenk sAO, her husband deliberate ly.
 From the location of the bullet and the position in which her husbands body was found, they now believe Mrs. Schcnk Quarreled with her hus- band and shot at him while he was standing in the doorway of her bedroom and after he had fled down stairs followed him to the top of the stairs and leaned over the rail and fired the shot that ended his life
 In giving her testimony Mrs, Schenk related the incidents of the party. which she said had been in celebration Cf the fourteenth we'd ding anniversary of Chick" Frazer, a former National League ball play CT.
 She said she had been put to bed by other women of the party, but was awakened soon after by Schenk calling her from down stairs.
 She got a revolver, she said, fear ing burglars. and hurried to the top of the stairs. Then she said she could see her husband stepping on the stairs. She admitted the revol- yer was discharged but she said she did net know of firing the shot and had no knowledge of the events immediately after.
 Under cross examination Mrs. SChenk said she did not know how many shots were fired and that she may have pulled the trigger more than once before dropping the weapon.
 The uncertainty of her story, to- gether with the testimony of Paul Cebek, Schenk's hostler, who de- clared he heard two shots fired about a minute apart, shortly after 6 o'clock in the morning, are said to have been the cause of the jury voting to hold Mrs. Schenk to the grand jury.
 Chick" Frazer testified that with his wife he had formed one of six couples that began a night or gayety at a church euchre party.
 After the church party" he said, "at which We had lunch, but no drinks. We went 10 Park Ridge to a hotel. Some members of the party and myself have been living there 1t was my wedding anniversary, so l got a quart of whisky to celebrate Then we got a quart of champagne and a quart of sour wine for the ladies. Drinks were served to all but I did not see Mrs. Schenk drink anything.
 Then we went to music hall i'll Park Ridge and at about 2:3o went over to Schenk's home. There We had more beer, whisky and wine and finally moved the furniture out 1 of the dining room and danced During the dance Mrs. Schenk got dizzy and later I learned she had been put to bed.

1 HAD A LITTLE PAIN,

I had little pain right in the mid dle of my back, And felt that all my aching bones were just about to crack, And when l told the folks at home about my miseree, Here are the several sort of things my people did to me:
 Mother got the arnica,
 Father got the oil,
 Mamie put the kettle on
 To let the water boil. kittie got the mustard,
 Tommy rubbed my spine, Cousin Howard 'an and bought A can of turpentino!
 Wife, she got excited,
 And fixed toddy hot; Then the doctCr came along
 And hammered on the spot! Neighbors rang the doorbell
 And volunteered to help, And even Fido, willing pup,
 Assisted with a yelp. And when the things Were ready they all gathered at my bed, With watcrbags to heat my feet and icepacks for my head; And while I groaned in anguish at the pain that I endured, Here are the several sorts of ways ry people got me cured: Mother rubbed me with arnica. Father rubbed with oil, Mamie get the footbath out
 And mt my feet tO hoi1i kittie mixed the mustard
 And plastered up my spine, And Howard made a siZzler with His can of turpentine! Wife, she got me piffled
 With frequent toddies hot And the doctor nearly killed me In his hammering on the spot! Neighbors came and told me Of all their friends that croak- With little pains Just like my Until nearly choked! At last the little pain that started all this ripping row Just disappeared and in the end got to sleep somehow; It was an ugly little pain-I hardly could endure it. But heaven knows how I survived the things they did to cure 1t.
