boy has given up his studies Temporarily
In order to take part in the search thar
Is being made by all the friends anu

1t is thought that he may have oeen
the victim OF a gang of thieves who nave
seriously injured him and then robbed
him of his money and valuables, ana
probably removed him to some obscure
point leaving him there In an uncon-
scious condition with all means of identi-

been admitted In an injured eoholtloh

At the time he left his house ne nao

received by her this strengthens the

Cell Cant Hold
Dorothy Russell

COLUMBUS. May Miss Dorothy
Russell and her were invited
by DR.. c. s. McCafferty to take a tour
through the I Columbus penitentiary.
While going through the various tiers
Warden Jones asked Miss Russell II she
would like an apartment for a week.
In response, Miss Russell said:
why, YOU couldn't keep me in here
five minutes. as I can get out of any
cell you hav in the place"
The warden looked astonished at her
retort. One of the men in the party told
Miss Russell he would give her 500 If
she could get out of any cell designated
by the warden. Miss Russell immediate
ly took him up. but made 1t a bet.
The warden placed her In a cell. and
had her searched by the mntron to see
II she had anything In her possession
whereby she could make an escape. She
was In the cell but five minutes, and re-
turned to the %warden's office to claim
the bet. Miss Russell says she has long
contemplated doing a similar act to Hou-
dini, the handcuffed king, but that her
mother had dissuaded her,

Families
Living on Rats

TORRAS, La, May 1.-Relief is being
rushed to hundreds OF marooned families
in the flooded territory north OF this
place. Food depots have been fixed at
points convenient for purposes of distri-
button. Terrible conditions prevail In the
Black river section. In many instances
parents and their children have taken
refuge on hastily constructed RATS
which they share with live stock.
A. s Simmons, who arrived rom d
trip over Concordia. Catalonia and len
eas, parishes. said that all OF these DAT
ishes were under water. with the excep-
ton of a few towns protected by ieVses'
.'Tbe inhabitants are homeless ana des-
%titute." he said. Five thousand whlte
persons along the Black river are III ,e .
desperate fix. The government supplies
receired there are Inadequate. Many
families expecting the food built rafts
and when the water came they moved
their household goods aboard. Horses,
cows pigs. chickens. dogs and cats are
sharing the RATS with the farmers and
their families. The RATS are anchored TO
trees and that's the way they are living
now,

MARKET IS FIRM
At CLOSING HOUR
Traces of Nervousness Vanish
and Prices Improve in
Final Hour.

NEW YORK. Mar 1.-Heavy selling Of
United States Steel common, based on the
'infa vorable quarterly report, was tho
feature at the opening Of today's' stock
market, There was also acute. weakness
in Union Pacific. with fractional declines
in other standard issues.
II a. m.-The early weakness in u. S.
Steel n Union Pacific suggested bear
pressure rather than liquidation. this be-
ing further attested by the CELEBRITY
with which Union Pacific recovered the
greater part of its loss.
p. m.-The markets narrow character
may be Judged from the fact that ,,iic-
third Of the mornings business was in
United States Steel, which with Reid
ing made up over 80 per rent. of the
whole. Steel reacted further during the
noon hour. declining to 69a4, with in
creased weakness in other leaders.
3 p. m.-The market closed firm.
All trace Of the nervousness vanished
in the final hour and prices improved
sharply under the influence of extern
siye short covering.

The petition for divorce filed by Jo-
seph WILDER. a steamfltter, of Perth

Chancellor Stevens and decision was re-
served on a cross petition filed by the
wife, Elizabeth WILDER.
ut is evident that he wanted to get
rid of his wife, said the Vice-Chancel-
lor in his opinion, land it is plain that
the petition must be refused. He
made no, effort to get her to return. aud
that alone would defeat his suit

tons IN the contest for control of the
S2o,O e1. 900 estate of John Arbuckle. of
Brooklyn, were found late yesterday,
when a third application for letters of
administration was made to the surro-
gate. Roxy NJ. Smith and William IL.
Smith. heirs of william ". II. Smith. OF
New Jersey. aud their counsel, James
n. Jarvie, filed two applications for the
appointment OF administrators.
Public Administrator Kelly, of Kings
County, and Mrs. Jamison and Miss
Arbuckle, sisters of the sugar king, have
applications before the surrogate, and
argument was to be heard in these cases
today. The new application complexities
the situation.

Arbuckle last year for breach OF con-
tract, demanding about 5000 90. Jarvie
has two suits for breach of contract
amounting to sos, 600.
