government departments are in the field,
penetrating TO the far interior of frozen
Alaska, scaling the highest mountains of
the continent, delving into the unknown
corners of the deserts OF the southwest
In accomplishing these tasks they are
meeting such emergencies as have turned
back the adventurous amateur who has
gone before them and failed. They have
outstripped the adventurous spirits of the
west who have left their bones to bleach
on the trails that lead toward these ac-
complishments. The unathletic scientist
has shown himself the prince of explor-
ers. And he holds that there is a reason.
The scientific theory of adventure Is this:
For the wise it does not exist. The only
man who has an adventure is the man
who does not know. A scientific man
starting out to accomplish a given end
sees every emergency that it is possible
for him to encounter. prepares for it and
meets il. 1t is impossible to surprise
him. therefore an adventure never comes
his way There is no risk. no chance of

MUST TAKE $1,000 VERDICT.
Appellate Division Refuses to give Law
yer Stearns More for False Arrest.

George A. Stearns, lawyer who got a
judgment for 5000 against ex-Detective
Sergts. Adolph Oppenheim and Charles
Grebe. must take 81 600 or have the case
tried again under ruling by the Appellate
Division Of the Supreme Court yesterday
The detectives went to Stearns's Office
to arrest client OF his charged with a
felony, and on being arrested the prisoner
passed a paper TO the lawyer which the
detectives believed might be material TO
their charge of obtaining money under
false pretences. When the LAWYER re-
fused to give up the paper and assaulted
them. they arrested him He was dis
charged in the police court.
Stearns sued the detectives for false
arrest and the case has been before the
Court OF Appeals, which decided that the
lawyers action in taking and retaining
the paper did not justify his arrest without
a warrant.
On the second trial the only oeustion
submitted was a determination of the
amount OF damages TO he recovered, The
trial judge refused to let the defendants
testify as to the circumstances under
which they went to the lawyers office,
For this reason and also because OF the
language used by the plaintiffs counsel
before the jury in attempting to show that
the detectives We're trespassers in his
Office the Appellate Division says that
the defendants were prejudced in such a
, way that a new trial should be granted
unless the plaintiff agrees To take 81, 600.

Suit to Prevent Cessation OF Business
Pending Change OF Ownership.

A suit aiming to prevent the business
Of the r. c. Dun 4 Co mercantile agency
from being interrupted through a change
in ownership Of the company was filed
in the Supreme Court yesterday. which
asks that the court make such disposition
Of the property as will enable the owners
Of part Of the business to buy out the rest.
When Robert Graham Dun. the builder
of the commercial agency business. died
In 1900 he left the good will and property
of the mercantile agency in the hands
Of trustees. The children Of his sister
Elizabeth Dun Douglass got four-tenths
OF the business. while the other six x-tenths
went to his sister Lucy A. James and
her children. Last December George
Douglass one of the sons Of Elizabeth
Dun Douglass, assigned his tenth interest
to three trustees.
The present suit is brought by Douglass =
three brothers and by the other owners
of interests in the company. They say
that the property consists chiefly Of the
good will of the business. which has been
carried on consecutively for seventy years
by Robert Graham Dun and his prede =
cessors, and since IL relates to the credit
anu DuSlilses StduOlHB ol iiciCtihiiNS anu
manufacturers its tangible assets consist
largely Of records relating TO the business
standing of thousands Of persons in the
United States and foreign countries.
The company also has thousands OF
contracts to furnish this information.
and If the business is not continued from
day to day without interruption the good
will will be disturbed and decrease in
value and the company will become liable
for unfulfilled contracts. The chief Office
is in New York and there are PA subor-
dinate Offices, the complaint says.
The plaintiffs ask that the court direct
that the property be disposed OF to the
best advantage. and that in case of sale
any party may be purchaser. The
court is asked TO determine the value OF
the business as a whole and the value
OF the separate interests. in order that II
may come under one ownership upon the
payment OF the amount fixed by the court
to the other interests.
For the last eleven years the business
has been managed by trustees named
in Mr.. Duns will.

LLOYD GEORGE. TERRIBLE MAN.
MIR. Fison OF England Gets In With His
wrath Somewhat Appeased.

An Englishman Of middle age. blue eyed

steep for Mr.. Fison. bah Jove. Later,
however. he consented to be- the de-
fendent in mock trial for sheep stealing

sheepskin coats was stuffed and hanged
Ia efigy. 1t was cut down before fison
got back. and when somebody told him
about 1t he said It was jolly good sport
and wondered why they did not let him
see 1t. Later everybody said that Mr.
Fison was Of real good sort even il he
did wear spats and things.

VAN DEN HEIVEL PARROT DEAD
That's the Reason the Bird Is Not at Con-
test OF Its Owners Wills.

II developed yesterday at the contest
before Surrogate Fowler Of the three wills
of Miss Charlotte van Den Heuvel. the
eightyyear spinster and great great
granddaughter of Robert Morris. that
Miss van Den Heuvel's parrot, which was
the chief object of her affection. died two
days after it's mistress J NJ fairfield
VINO Is counsel for a group of contestants
arrayed against group for which Henry
W Taft is counsel. said yesterday that IL
the parrot hadn't died he would have had
the bird produced TO see whether il was as
remarkable as the witnesses had tes-
titled
Mise van Den Heuvel wanted TO leave her
100000 estate to charitable institutions
and her friends. but was dissuaded
from such action by George W. Wicker
sham. then her personal counsel and
executor of one Of the wills. Two of the
beneficiaries under the WiCkersham
will, executed in 1898. said they were
treated rudely at Miss van Den Heuvel's 3
home by the housekeeper Miss Caroline
Koch. who claimed $4,000 worth OF
property under a will made in 1904.
How do you explain that?" asked Mr.
Taft,
We'll, it was because We upheld Mr.
Wickersham's ideas about the disposal OF
our cousins estate" said Miss julia
Bibby. one of the witnesses.
Manley A. Raymond. the executor
named in. the second will under which
Miss Koch is the chief bene ficiary, saio
that Miss van Den Heuvel was of sounc
mind and uninhuenced when she directed
him to execute IL.
The case was not concluded.

MISS ROI DEN DENIES 1T.
q constitutional SufIraxist says She Il
Not Here to Hamper Nrs. Pankh hurst.

Miss Maude Royden Of London. a con
stitutional' sufragist. told the members
of the New York Equal Suffrage League
who met yesterday afternoon at the Hotel
As:or that she thought il was too bad peo-
pie would accuse her of decrying the

Il really haven I come over here to
oppose Mrs. Pank hurst she said. We
British sufragists are too busy working
for the vote to waste any time in bicker-
ing or arguing. 1t will take our combined
wits TO get ahead of the men.
You know British women have been
actively associated with politics for some
time ever since. in fact law WAS passed
that political canv assers could not he paid
IL was really annoying how men coaXed,
"a ioled, threatened and bullied their fe-
male relative es into electioneering for them
There l. only one kind Of an idiot that
will work without pay. and that is the
female idiot. This participation in active
politics has, however, brought about an
! intense party loyalty among women.
The Liberal party. for instance. is a
sort Of fetish to thousands of our suf-
! fragists. and the suffrage cause could
have asked no greater test of their
devotion than the giving up their party
I ties They have agreed, however. that
| the woman's cause must take precedence
! of all others until 1t is won. And now a,
last the victory seems to be near at hand
OF course. as you know, we don't expect
to get the vote on the same terms that the
men have it. There are twenty-seven
kinds of franchise in Great Britain. and
sometimes having it or not is contingent
upon the ownership of dog or a parrot
| That is really true, though it would take
me some time TO explain how il comes
TO be so. There are only two lawyers ir
England who understand the matter OF
franchise, and they don't agree"
