HUSBAND A HREBUC,
HIS DEATH IN BLAZE
REVEALED TO HIS Wife
Mrs. Horowitz Says Mysterious
Absences Had Puzzled
Her for Years.

Mrs. Jacob .TIorowltz OF No. ioi East
Fourth street. learned to-day for the
first time that her missing husband
had made his living as a. firsbug and
identified as his the clothes Of the un-
known man who was burned to death
at Paterson, N. j.. week ago. She
did not express grief when she told Of
their life to-day. The sentiment upper
most In her mind was of relief that the
suspense of living with man whose
occupation she had vaguely felt was IL
legitimate was at az end. This, not
wlthstandinx that she did not know
where to turn for help to support herself
and her three children.
The Horowltzes came from Russia
three years ago. With the aid OF a
neighbor as interpreter. the woman's
story was pieced together.

sat. dry-eyed and dispa ssionate. For
three years I have been expecting this,

York I was uneasy about Jacob. We
had money enough to live on. We could
! live as well as the other tenants. But
never knew where the money came

sometimes ! thought my husband
must have made bets on the races OF
something like that. He never seemed
to really work. He would go away al
times-maybe a long time, maybe a short
time. and when ne came back he would
have money. and he would give some OF
II to me. Several times I noticed that
after he had gone away there were
fires: and then noticed that his clothes
smelled OF smoke. So thought mayb,
ne did something like that. But I never
dared 70 ask him.
over since We were married he tolc
me nothing about himself or his busi
ness. He would say: Here Is the money
for you and the kids. That is enough
more. but I was afraid. and got more

E The discovery and recovery of The
great seal of the Confederacy, which

complished by the united efforts of
three Richmond citizens-Eupa Hun
ton, Jr.. William H. White and Thomas
5inkney Bryan For more than fifty
'syears the whereabouts of the seal had
remained mystery and many were
the stories as to the probable fate of
sthe great relic of the Southern cause.
The seal was finally located in the
Assession of Real Admiral Thomas O.
tfridge, United States navy, retired.
NOW citizen of Washington. After
several conferences this officer agreed
10 part with the precious emblem of
The Lost Cause" believing that a fit
ting resting place for the great seal
was at Richmond, the Quondam Capital
OF the Confederate Government.
1t was through records preserved in
the archives at Washington that the
great seal Of the Confederate States
was traced to Admiral Selfridge.
These papers, in the library of Con-
gress, showed that the seal had been
removed from Richmond on the evac-
uation of that city, being taken by Will
! liam j. Bromwell. then a clerk in the
Confederate State department.
The great seal, together with the pa
peTs, was later sold by Bromwell
through Col. John T. Pickett to the
United States for $4,000. Admiral
