The fact that the remains OF his former
sweetheart were to be brought back to
Boston made a change in the self-satis-

in Charles street Jail.
Thomas V. Richeson, the grizzled Con-
federate veteran and father Of the young
clergyman, reached Boston at o'clock
from his Virginia home. The aged South

Sore Feet. Never After Using TIZ.
Good-by sore feet. aching feet, swol-
len feet, sweaty feet, smelling feet,
tired feet.
Good-by corns. eallouses, and bun
ions, and raw spots.
You've never tried anything like TIZ
before on your feet. 1t is different
from anything ever before sold.
1t acts at once and makes the feet
feel remarkably fresh and soreproof.
TIZ Is not a powder. Powders and
other foot remedies clog up the pores.
TIZ draws out all poisonous exudations,
which bring on soreness of the feet,
and is the only remedy that does. TIZ
cleans out every pore and glorifies the
feet-your feet.
You'll never limp again or draw up
your face in pain, and you'll forget
about your corns, bunfons, and CAL
louses. You'll feel like a new person.
II you don't find all this true after
trying a box of TIZ, you can get your
money right back.
TIZ is for sale at all druggists at
25 cents per box, or II will be sent you
direct II you wish from Walter Luther

Or. Perry, rs the real power in our

its present progressive attitude public
opinion IS stimulated by the revelation

When Mr.. Harry Lauder, the
famous Scotch comedian, was in
town at the Belasco last week,
we besought him to christen Our
new Scotch Overcoat-for who
could name it more appropriately
than such a widely travelled son
of the Land of the Thistle?
Call it The Argyle, he
said. :'That's a typical name for
Coat so typicaIly Scotch as this
garment is"
And so it is to besknown as
"The Argyle" indicative of
rugged integrity.

it, it has original character in its

locked up. Robert received word Of the
indictments, and hastily left Washington,
deserting his offices, jumping" his board
ing-hOuse, and leaving no directions as
to forwarding his mail.
From Washington Stein went to New
ark, n. j., where he opened offices at
425 Essex Building. He claimed to have
patents for amusement devices Of vari-
GUS kinds. Stein imediately organized
a corporation, with a capital stock Of
S125, 900, and began selling stock. He then
began advertising for the purchase of
patents of all kinds, just as his brother
had done in Milwaukee. When patents
were submitted to them he would refer
his clients to Homer A. Bell, a fictitious
parsonage, of Washington. who would
look up the question of validity.
Stein then returned to Washington TO
collect the $25 fees under the name OF
Homer A. Bell. But Stein began to fear
that the post-office inspectors would dis
cover him and place him under arrest,
so instead of opening permanent offices,
he began dodging from place TO place
about the city. The inspectors had been
searching for him since his escape from
the city IN May. Clarence r. Wilson.
United States district attorney, aided in
the search. At last 1t became known that
Homer A Bell was in the city, and the
/
was traced from point TO poin-, but he
always managed to evade the officers.
Finally it was discovered that Stein
was having his mail sent to a downtown
bank. 1t was also learned that he had
made arrangements with the elevator boy
to receive the mail and TO deliver II to
him at stated times. So yesterday Hal

hoy and ask for his mail. The inspec-
tors Immediately jumped out and placed
Stein under arrest.
MIR. Bell was taken to the First pre-
Cinct station and locked up. He did not
appear to take his arrest seriously. All
his actions point to the fact that he was
expecting his arrest daily. At first he
said that he was operating for another
man, but he finally admitted the falsity
of the statement. He refused to tell his
name or age at first. but finally admitted
that his name was Stein. and that he
was the brother of Ernest.
A warrant will be sworn out for Stein
this morning, after which arrangements
will be made for his removal to Milwau-
kee. He may be indicted here for con-
spiracy in the use OF the malls to de-
fraud in Newark and Washington. Dis
trict Attorney Wilson is aiding in max
ing arrangements in the case.
Stein is very IoquaCious, and is exceed

up to the time OF his arrest was due un-
doubtedly to his strong personality.

And Emil Gluck chuckled and went
his way. He knew. But how was the
world to know? He had stumbled
upon the secret in his old electro
plating shop on Telegraph Avenue in
the city of Oakland. 1t happened, at
that time, that a wireless telegraph
station was established by the Thurs
ton Power Company close to his
shop. In a short time his electro
plating vat was put out of order
The vat-wiring had many bad joints,
and, upon investigation, Gluck dis
covered minute welds at the joints
in the wiring. These, by lowering
the resistance, had caused an eX-
cessive current to pass through the
solution, boiling it and spelling
the work. But "what had caused the
welds?" was the question in Gluck's
mind. His reasoning was simple. Be
fore the establishment of the wire
less station the vat had worked well.
Not until after the establishment OF
the wireless station had the vat
been ruined. Therefore, the wireless
station had been the cause. But
how? He quickly answered the ques-
ton. If an electric discharge was
capable of operating a coherer across
three Thousand miles of ocean, then,
certainly, the electric discharge
from the wireless station four hun.
dred feet away could produce CO.
herer effects on the bad joints in

On her forward deck on a huge
temporary platform of timbers, were
disposed over IA hundred mines.
These mines were for the defense
of the Golden Gate. Any one of these
mines was capable OF destroying a
dozen battleships, and there were
over a hundred mines. The dcstruc-
tion was terrific but it was only
Gluck's overture. He played his flash

1t was a fright:ll catastrophe, and

that whoever was the human Icing

safe. There was no defense against
this unknown and ail-powerful foe.
Warfare was futile-nay, not merely
futile, but itself the very essence
of the peril. For a twelve-month tie
manufacture of powder ceased, and
all soldiers and sailors were with
drawn from all Notifications and war
vessels. And even a world disarma-
mcnt was seriously considered at

The Hague at that time.
And then S!las Bannerman, g
secret-seryice agent of the United

the arrest of Emil Gluck. At first
Bannerman was laughed at. but he
had prepared his case well, and in a
few weeks the most skeptical were

She paid, "Nuthin', sir!'
Although she knew it wasn't true
She had 'em all on her.
And when they had her searched, oh,
They found 'em in her hair!-

Then there was little boy
Who brought a lot of clothes,
And handkerchief and shirts and

And underwear and hose;
And as he landed on the dock
He looked just like a saint.

abroad
He said, mo, sir, I amt"
But when they opened up his trunks
The things they found in there!-

A Splendid Presentation.

The Spooner Dramatic Company
presented a splendid version of Or
Jekyll and Mr.. Hyde last night at
the Robson opera house under the
direction of Mr.. Wallock, who mod
eled the play under the Richard Mans
field production.
Mr.. Wallock, as DR.. Jekyll and Mr..
Hyde, was the central figure and
did some really superb acting, max
ing a striking antithesis of the re-
morse of DR.. Jekyll and the vicious
ness of Mr. Hyde.
The transformation from one char
acter into the ether was splendidly
given and Mr.. Wallock displayed
his complete mastery of the Charac-
ter His presentation of the death
scene was particularly realistic. Mr.
Wallock was especially good in ia
cial expression and the eyes of DR..
Jekyll always foretold the coming
of Mr. Hyde. The part is a gruesome
one and under mis- capable acting
made an impression on his audience
they will not soon forget.
This company is playing to crowd
ed houses every evening; their
praise is universal. Tonight they will
present a splendid comedy, my Boy
