Match Head, Falling Into Rubbish in
Paint Store, Threatens Block.

Winchester, Va, Sept 1S.-A
match head that fell into a pile of
combustible rubbish in a frame build
ing containing paints, oils and warm

stroying the rear portion of the build
ing and also wiping out the roofing

Drowning of Mrs. SZabo.

New York, Sept. 18.-Detectives to-
day planned to have Franz Menschlk,
of Vienna, brother of the dead Mrs.
Menschik, inspect two women now un-
der surveillance, each believed to have
impersonated Mrs. Petronelle Men
schik, mother of Mrs. Szabo.
Burton w. Gibson, who was with
Mrs. Szabo on Greenwood Lake when
he says she was drowned, and who now
is held for her murder, has alleged all
the time that her mother was alive,
and that he was acting as Mrs. SEA-
bo's executor with Mrs. Menschlk's
consent. Franz Menschik swears that
his mother died two years ago, and
that Mrs. Pentronelle Menschik now
in the United States is an imposter.
One of the women under survelli-
ance is a guest at the Waldorf Astoria
while the other recently came here
from Chicago, wearing gray wig for
disguise.

But is Later Caught.

Luray, Va, Sept. ia boa con-
strictor measuring II feet and weigh

travelling Indian show, caused conster.
nation among the inhabitants OF
Northern Shenandoah county.
Men would not venture out I'm.
armed, women and children remained
behind barred doors, and the entire
northern tier of that county was
charged with an air of terror.
Books were sought and the habits
and the best means of attacking the
boa in his native home were read.
Finally the snake was found some
distance from where it escaped, the
discovery being made by woman who
had not heard of it's escape. The In
dian tribe gave her 81 for her trouble
in locating it.
The monster boa is the mother OF
10 smaller ones. 1t required the COM
bined wiles and maneuvering OF the
tribe to again land the snake in cap

fled of the fatal illness of Emil L.

was to wed next month, Miss Lynda
NJ. Teitgen, of Manitowoc, Wis, ac-
companied by her mother, left her
home in the Northwest Sunday in a
hurried dash to this city, but upon

death had been futile. Shepherd had
died at local hospital from two ope-
rations, one being for appendicitis.
Miss Teitgen was almost complete
ly Frustrated when informed of Shep-
herds death, and insisted upon going
direct from the depot to the under
taking establishment. Moaning and
crying at the top of her voice as she
sped along Main street in a hotel ON
nibus, the distressed woman awoke
residents for blocks.
Shepherd was 20 years old, and the
son of John Shepherd, who was here
until Sunday night, when he was in
formed of the sudden illness of another
son at home. He was an electrical
engineer, educated in Washington, D.
C. Since May he had been in the en-

mer home, The Oaks, this county,

General and Mrs. Sickles.

New York, Sept 1S.-The direct
charge that his father, Gen. Daniel
E. Sickles, asked his mother, from
whom he had been separated for
years, to pawn her jewels to save his
collection of war relics, and that the
: General then refused to see her or tc
consider reconciliation was made
today by Stanton Sickles son of the
aged veteran The sacrifice, his
mother made, Stanton Sickles says.
was because she hoped to effect a
reconciliation so that she might re-
main with her husband until one OF
the other died but the General posi-
lively spurned her advances. In
this connection young Sickles said
that the only chance of reconcilia-
ton now rested with the General and
gave out the following as an author
lied interview with his mother:
at is not true that the separation
between the General and myself is
impossible. At this moment, certain
conditions being granted, I am ready
to step once more into the home as
Mrs. Sickles. But his housekeeper
must go first. The proposal must
come first from my husband and it
must be formally made. Eight years
more and the General Will have reach
ed the century mark and who but !

BOLD THIEVES STkAL THE
YACHT OF c. A. TAYLOR;
BEACHED ON CUMBERLAND
WENT ABOARD / A. NJ, STARTED
ENGINE AND LEFT, so A
WATcHMAN SAYS.

When c. A. Taylor, the well-known
merchapdise broker. who recently
urchased handsome yacht. wen.
10 its usual mooring place opposite
the feot of Prince street yesterday.
morning to take a look at his boats
It was missing Mr. Taylor was sur
pri5ed and shocked. when, after an
investigation, he learned that two
men were seen to go aboard of the
yacht about o'clock yesterday morn
ing and after remaining on the boat
about an hour, steamed away with
her toward the sea.
The watchman who does duty in
that section, though, of course, that
Mr. Taylor was aboard, and as he was
not charged with the specific duty of
watching this boat, he paid no fur
ther attention to the matter. As soon
as Mr.. Taylor missed0 the Ariel,
for that is the name of the yacht. he
got busy. First he feared the boat
nad capsized and gone to the bottom.
This did not seem possible in the face
of the information he had received
anu because Of his knowledge of his
craft.
He at once wired the chiefs OF po-
lice of Savannah, Jacksonville, Fer
noaldina, Mayport, Tampa and other
Gulf and Atlantic ports. He atso
called The long distance phone into
service and 'phoned to most of the
nearby places available.
The Ariel is practically new
yacht in these waters and is a hand
some boat. She was purchased by
Mr.. Taylor about a year and half
ago at a cost of $4,000 and since she
has been here other Improvements
and retairs have been made.
Later in the day Mr. Taylor was
advised that the boat had been
beached at Little Cumberland. He
at once went to that point and To-
Gated his boat. That she was taken
