His One Fault.

In southbound subway car two
men stood in front of a woman. The
men were hanging to straps and talk
ing to each other. One was a tall,
big man with an ordinary sort of
voice, the other a small man with a.
voice that could be heard by all in the
car above the banging, rafting and
roaring of the train Each word he
uttered was ear-splitting.
Turning to the woman who sat next
her the woman in front of whom these
men stood, said: "Merciful heaven,
what a voicei"
you may we'll say what a voice.

do If you had to live in the house with

morning until night, and it even
echoed in your dreams?"

the woman addressed, but I can't He
is my husband, and really his voice is

STILL AT LIBERTY.
TOLIC6 UNABLE TO CAPTURE
INTRUDER WHO HAS KEPT
GOODS TERROR.
MANY PRECAUTIONS TAKEN
Friyate Detectives Guard Sorority
Houses and Other Homes of Girl
Students-The People Worked Up
Over lhe Affair.

Madison. girl students OF
the University of Wisconsin are in q
conoltlon OF terror as a result of the
inability OF the authorities TO catch
the mysterious man who has been
entering sorority houses and woman
boarding houses during the last four
months. The board of regents of the
university, parents of some of the
girl students, and the Madison police
have been cooperating in an effort
to catch the man, but have so far
been unsuccessful
To date this mysterious man has
entered two sorority houses and one
private house devoted entirely to girl
students. He has also been seen
peep1ng through windows at Chad
bourne hall, where a large number Of
goods live, and other places where
girls reside. In one of the sorority
houses, which he entered four
months ago, he is said to have as
saulted the matrOn. At another
place he is said to have compelled
two goods to dance for him. He has
never taken any jewelry, money or
other property of value
Chief of Police Thomas Shaugnes-
sy says he believes the mysterious
man is deranged student. He be-
gan MS operations last fall by climb
ing the fire escapes of Chadbourne
nall and other big buildings in the
university section and peeping at the
girls through the windows. Early
this year he began entering the hous--
es. He wears a handkerchief as a
mask and carries an electric flash
light and shining revolver. He usu--
ally enters the houses through win
dow or door in the basement and
forces doors until he reaches the
apartments of the girls.
Most of the girls, though panic,
stricken, have defied him and bluffed
him until he became alarmed and
left. In the last house he entered the
girl he accosted screamed Justify and
the landlady gave an alarm, but the
fellow escaped.
A large number Of private detec-
tives are working on the case but so
far have not succeeded in landing the
man. 1t seems that the fellow some
how or other knows the movements
of the university authorities and the
private detectives and remains quiet
when they are most active. When
they let up for few days he resumes
operations. The report that real
estate dealer was questioned by the
detectives is denied
The private detectives work under
H. G. Bumpus, business manager Of
the university Chief Shaughnessy
has all of his extra men in the uni
versity section every night Most of
the sOrorities now have men watch
ing both the inside and outside Of
their houses.

PEACE AGREEMENT
DRAFT COMPLETED
Provides for Arbitration of Disputes
Between This Country and
Britain

Washfngton.-The final draft of the
treaty Of arbitration between the
United States and Great Britain will
be considered by the cabinet and then
will be laid before the British gov
eminent.
If the paper meets with the approval
Of the authorities in London, it will
be signed by Secretary of State Knox,
acting on behalf of this government
and Ambassador Bryce for the gov
ernment Of King George
British diplomats would like the
treaty to be signed and sealed on the
day Of the coronation of the new SOW
erelgn, II not before, thus suspicious
ly inaugurating the reign of peace
which they hope he will enjoy.
The draft under consideration is
comparatively brief 1t recites the
mutual wish of the two governments
to settle all future disputes by arbi-
tration and provides that in each case
a protocol, stating the questions to
agreed upon. Such protocol shall be
submitted to the senate for ratifica-
ton before the dispute can be arbi-
trated
The present arbitration convention
between the United States and Great
Britain is limited in scope and ex-
empts questions of national honor and
vital interest and those affecting the
rights of third parties. In the new
convention no questions will be ex-
cepted from arbitration
Under the existing convention the
senate has the right to pass not only
upon the statement of questions at
issue, but also as to whether the dis
pute is proper one for arbitration.
Under the new convention the SEN
ate will pass only upon the statement
of questions at issue between the two
governments.
President Taft and Secretary Knox
are consulting members of the SEN
ate with respect to each step in the
negotiations. The object of this &C
ton is to obtain suggestions and
above all to minimize opposition to
ratification of the convention. 1t is
realized that considerable difficulty
will be experienced in getting the
necessary two-thirds votes.

BAYARD's SON MEETS DEATH.
Jumps From Window at Hospital
Coroner Orders Searching Probe.

Washington. = Philip Bayard OF
Wilmington, Del, son of the late
Thomas F. Bayard, former secre-
tary, of state and ambassador to Eng
land, died at Garfield hospital under
circumstances which caused Coroner
hewitt to order searching investiga-
ton into the case.
Bayard, who has been patient at
the hospital since last Friday, fell or
jumped from the third to the second
story veranda. In semi-conscious
condition he was found on the yeran-
da and removed to his room, where he
was examined by the attending physi-
clan, who reported that he was not
seriously injured. They found few
slight bruises on his arms and knees.
Early Sunday he began to sink rap
idly and died. Coroner hewitt exam
ined the body and said the bruises
would not have resulted in death. An
inquest will be held

Steady Indeed.

The head waiter of New York cafe
pointed out an old patron, and said:
He's been coming here regularly for
lunch ever since I've been on the job,
and that's going on eight years. He
may have missed when I was off, but
that hasn't occurred often. He doesn't
vary three minutes in his comings,
and he never stays at his table more
than thirty minutes. So far as I have
learned he is about as methodical in
what he orders as he is in other
things. He seldom talks to anybody
here. Summer and winter he wears
the same style of coat and hat.
would almost swear that the hat is the
same he wore when he began coming
here If it is he takes good care of it.
His home is in Philadelphia, and he
goes there every Saturday afternoon,
returning here on Monday. Aside from
giving his order he never spoke to me
but once 7 asked him how he was
and he replied that was his business.
So let it so at that"

CAT CARRIES WRITER'S COPY
intelligent Animal Pressed Into Serv'
ice Does Work Better Than
Boy Can Do 1t.

Bob, a handsome black cat, owned
by Francis John Willoughby, story
writer, who lives in Clinton, N j., is
the apple of his masters eye. So in
telligent is he that he has now taken
the place of the copy boy whom the
writer formerly employed to carry
manuscript to his stenographer His
owner asserts that the cat not only
knows how to carry copy in either di-
rection, but also can tell time, and
never makes an error.
Willoughby's nerves are sensitive
He must have absolute quiet when he
writes. Therefore, he has his study in
the upper part of the house, and the
stenographer works on the first floor
His plan is to write page of copy in
long hand and then send it to the
typewriter to be copied. Until a few
weeks ago he had a boy to do the run
ming up and down stairs. Boys will be
boys, however, and the one he had
made an unusual amount of noise,
which often disturbed the writer. The
boy and cat were friends, and on all

Several weeks ago the boy quit
Wtlloughby wondered If he could get
something quieter than a boy. He
thought of the cat. Putting a sheet
of paper in Bob's mouth, he told him
to go down to the stenographer with
1t. Bob went, and soon returned with
copy the girl was sending to her en-
ployer. Once started the plan worked
to perfection.
Wflloughby writes from three until
five o'clock each afternoon. The cat
has learned his hours. Precisely at
three o'clock he stations himself on
stool by WiIloughby's side and
watches and purrs until a page Of
copy is finished. Then Bob seizes it
and rushes down stairs. If the stenog-
rapher says Thank you, Bob" the cat
knows he is to return to his master
at once. If she receives the copy in
silence the cat knows he is to wait for
return message.

DICKINSON QUITS
AS WAR SECRETARY
Personal Affairs Cause Him to Resion
- Taft Accepts With
Regret.

Washington.-The president an
nounced the resignation from The
cabinet of Jacob NJ Dickinson as sec
Rotary Of war and the appointment of
Henry l.. Stimson Of New York as his
successor. Mr.. Dickinson was the
Democratic member of the cabinet
and Mr.. Stimson was the candidate OF
the Republicans of New York for gov
ernor at the last election.
In the letters exchanged between
the president and Mr.. Dickinson nc
reason, other than that of pressing
private affairs, is given for the secre
tary's retirement.
Mr., Dickinson will go to his Tennes
see home Immediately upon the quail
f1cation of his successor. He expects
to devote his attention to business and
will not return to the practice Of law
in which he was engaged when Presf
dent Taft appointed him in March
1909. He is the second member OF
Mr.. Taft's cabinet to retire to private
life, Secretary of the Interior Balm
ger having severed his connection
with the presidents official family only
a few months ago.
Coincident with the announcement
of Mr.. Dickinson's retirement came
that of the appointment of G. S. Mil
lington of Herkimer, N. Y, to be as
s1stant treasurer of the United States
in New York. Mr.. Stimson was the
Roosevelt candidate for governor,
while Mr.. Wilmington was former
member of the house for the Twenty
seventh New York district, and is a
close friend of Vice-President Sher-
man and other leaders of the old
guard in the state, having succeeded
Mr. Sherman in the house when the
latter became vice-president.
In the two appointments official
Washington found food for specula-
ton, and many politicians thought
they saw therein the first step of the
administration to straighten out the
tangled skein of New York politics.
No effort was made by the president
to conceal the satisfaction with which
ne viewed the appointment of Mr..
StimsOn. Not only has he the highest
personal regard for the incoming
member Of his cabinet, but he is well
aware that the appointment will be
acceptable to a large faction of the
Republican party in New York.

Juarez, Mexico.-Peace within a
few days may be the result of a con-
ference held between Francisco |. Ma
dero, Jr., president of the provisional
| government, and Francisco Carbajal,
official envoy from the Diaz govern
ment. Following the conference, which
lasted two hours, Madero announced
that there was a strong probability
that the war would be ended
Senior CarbaJal asked for a confer
ence with Madero, and it was known
that he had received long telegram
from Mexico City giving him practical
ly new instructions.
Senior Carbajal has been invested
with plenary powers and is authorized
to sign the peace agreement on certain
conditions
What these terms are has been a
matter Of secrecy, but the original de-
mand Of the insurrectos that they be
allowed to name IA governors of the
27 states, and that they be represented
in new cabinet by four members of
their party has not been received with
enthusiasm by the federal government,
although the question of the resigna-
ton Of President Diaz has been shelved
as result Of Minister Limantour's ex-
PLANTATION
Preparations for vigorous pushing

is the plan of the campaign. The Ma
dero army at Juarez has been increased
by heavy enlistment of volunteers to

veterans have been newly equipped

to General Rabago's force of federa1s,
reported marching north to attack Jua-
rez, have been gone over thoroughly
and approved, and most Of the Madero
army will soon move southwark as a
part of the plans.

Hermosillo, the capital of the state of
