Nenturing out too far on an cid
limb of tree in Patterson woods,
in the rear of the Deaf and Dumb
Asylum, yesterday afternoon, Will
lam Sloucher, jr., ten years old,
plunged head first a distance OF
twenty feet, breaking his neck. He
was instantly killed. He also re-
ceived a fracture of the skull and
internal injuries, but when ply
sician from Casualty Hospital ar
rived he pronounced the lad dead.
PLAYING IN WOODS.
About noon yesterday William, and
his twelve-year- brother. Howard L
Sloucher. went into the woods to play.
The boys of the neighborhood had built
a small house in the tree about fifteen
feet from the ground. Notches were cut
in the tree to be used as steps.
Howard was fearful of the climb. how
ever. and remained on the ground while
his younger brother showed him the way
up. William had left the larger branches
and was making his way TO the end of
what appeared TO be strong limb. When
halfway out the branch suddenly
snapped.
The boys head hit on the ground.
Howard stood about two feet from the
SPOT. The little brother realized what
had happened and rushed to aid William.
Boy Lay Unconscious.
The boy lay unconscious. with his face
buried under his left arm. Howard ran
at full speed and summoned aid. An
ambulance was called. On its arrival
DIR. Kane said death was due to a broken
neck.
The tree has been the haunt OF the
boys of that neighborhood. The limbs
seemed strong, and the more venture
some had many times been on the same
branch which yesterday gave way with
little William.
William Sloucher and his wife. father
and mother of the dead boy. were pros
trated with grief last night. They had
no intimation of the death of the boy
until notified by the police OF the Ninth
Precinct. Coroner hewitt issued a Ger
tificate of accidental death.

the fraxinella is called the gas plant.

London Through tho Ages.

London Through tho Ages.
The occupation Of the site OF London
dates back much farther than most
readers are aware. The city that
julius Caesar found occupied a site
which had been inhabited for unnum-
bered thousands of years. It Is now
known that during paleolithic and
neolithic times-the two great divi-
sions OF the stone age-man dwelt on
the site Of London, but It first became
the settlement Of community at the
opening Of the historic age, when it
was a stronghold Of the Celts. The
remains Of its Roman period are the
finest OF the kind in Great Britain.
The Anglo Saxon and Danish periods
are finely represented, and even later
periods, such as the Tudor, furnish REL
les that have been buried by that
strange process Of superintendent
growth which makes the soil under a
great city resemble the fossiliferous
strata of eeology.-Youth's Companion

If man who uses tobacco will give
It up for one day each week he will
keep himself from becoming a ITO

well known doctor. who says that
quite number Of men, including him
self. have adopted this plan.
by leaving of tobacco for one day
. week you give your system time to
get rid of the effects of the drug" he
said.
You will then enjoy your tobacco
far more, too, because you have be-
come unaccustomed to the favor, and
it is therefore more enjoyable when
you resume smoking.
1.-THE effect of tobacco is a general
sedative action on the nervous sys'
tenn, which diminishes the power OF
taste and smell. That IS why tea
tasters seldom or never smoke.
leave it of for day, and the
sense of taste RECEIVERS. Not only
that but leaving of tobacco Tor one
day voluntarily breaks the tobacco
habit, exercises the self control and
prevents one from becoming a slave
to the habit.

from irritable hearts, loss Of appetite
for breakfast, eye trouble, sometimes
going as far as blindness, chronic
catarrh Of the throat and nervous de-

sTUYvEsANT's. LOST LEG.

Doubt 40 to Which Il Was Shown In
Paintings and Statues.
There is no doubt Peter Stuyvesant
had a wooden leg. The histories tell
Of how he stomped about the streets
Of New Yieuw Amsterdam, leaving a
dot and dash trail in the road like a
Morse code. But there is one point on
which historians seem perplexed-ori it
may be that the readers Of history are
unobserving+-which leg had the good
Peter lost?
In the Wall street section those who
roam may see at least five representa-.
lions Of The late lamented governor Of
the Dutch colony. Three Of these are
painted on the panels Of signs, and two
arc statues. like Peters leg, made OF
wood.
One Of the statues and two Of the
paintings represent the governor wear
ing a chair leg attached to his right
neither limb, while in the others paint
ers and sculptors have chosen to rep.
resent that it was his left leg he had
lost.
All show the leg bedecked with rib.

The elephants bath takes a week to

the services of three men, and it costs
$500. This treatment Is necessary for
a circus elephant. and If the animal is
a valuable one the proprietor of the
circus does not consider the money
wasted. The first process consists In
going over the immense body with the
best soap procurable: $50 pounds Of
soap is used. and the elephants ears
are especially carefully attended to.
When the soaping and drying are
completed the elephant is we'll sandpa-
pered and after that rubbed all over
with the purest Indian oil until the

enbaum, president of a mail'order
clothing house, appeared before them
and said that his concern had spent
$500, 900 annually in postage.
How much did you say?" asked
Nustice Charles E. Hughes, the chair
man.
I'VE spend 100000 year with the
postal department of the United
States. and about 100000 with the
express companies" was the reply.
Rosenbaum said that his company
mailed 100000 packages of fourth
class matter alone. His idea in ap-
pearing before the commission was to
emphasize the wonderful volume OF
mail that grew out of magazine ad'
vertisements, which were, he argued,
productive of so much profit that the
government could readily afford tc
carry them for nothing. The com
pany, he continued, received more
than $6,0O0,00O in postal orders alone
from buyers throughout the country
