IL is feared that if the walls col
lapse they will go crashing down
through the flimsy floor of Broad
way and into the subway.
The billion or more dollars
worth of securities in the Mercan-
tile Vaults are, believed to be per
fectly safe. These vaults are in
the basement. They are modern,
and freproof. It is. not believed
the fire can reach them.
But even if the wrecking COM
panies now at work could get to
the doors of t ese vaults, they
could not be opened. Permit
ting a rush of oxygen laden air
into the vaults would cause spon-
taneous combustion, and the de-
struction of everything within
vaults.
The vaults of the Equitable
Life are on the first floor. They
contain securities worth $780,
100000, four million being in &C
tual money. These values, say
the fremen, are doomed.
Momentarily the fremen are
expecting these vaults to go
crashing through the first floor
and into the basement. And if
they should do this, it is almost
certain they will burst open, and
their contents be burned.

search lights, fremen dug on the

Wife Murderer Hung.

SAN QUENTIN, Nov. Bod Will
Jams, a Butte county wife murderer,
was hanged at 1851 this morning. The
trap was sprung promptly at the min
ute, and the body was cut down at
11:O5, after hanging IA minutes.
The warden last night assembled the
prison orchestra about Williams cell,
where it played for an hour, beginning
at 8 o'clock.
Williams awoke at o'clock quite re-
freshed. He refused breakfast, but
later took some coffee and qiece of
cake. He thanked the warden on the
gallows for allowing the orchestra to
play 'The Wearing of the Green" He
smoked several cigarettes while he
was awaiting the dead march, and did
not seem nervous.

Mr.. Carnegie, plainly enough, is will
ing to take such step. 1t is clear
that he has aimed to fix the minimum
at which the government shall fix the
pensions of ex-presidents, and their
widows, for he sets out, in unmistak-
able words that he makes the pension
large in order to enable the recipients
to live without work. We, the people
of the United States, will have to see
about that First, We shall have to
consider whether we owe anything
more to man we have paid so hand
somely as to have enabled him to pro-
vide for the future. After that, if we
think a continuing pension should BE-
added to large temporary wages, we
are likely to be careful not to put it at
a figure more than enough to main
tain gentleman and his family in
comfort. Pensioning people to live in
idle splendor, as they do such things
in Great Britain, is not a part of the
American genius. If after we have
acted, either in failing to pension, or in
lower than Mr.. Carnegie's |
lotions of such things, he should con-
inue willing to pay ex-presidents, or !
heir widows, $4,000 a year, he will |
lave turned his joke upon himself, par
icularly if none of the men he offers a
'ension should accept it when offered

The next day l received a telegram
from Cologne, announcing her arrival
but my telegram in response elected
no reply. Nearly three weeks later l
communicated with the mother of the
baroness at Wiesbaden, and heard that
she knew nothing of her daughter. In
quiries were at once made at Cologne,
and it was discovered that before re-
ceiving my telegram she had her
trunks addressed to her house in Ber-
lin, and left for home.
Since she left Cologne for Berlin
nothing has been seen or heard of her.
In her possession was about $2250 in
notes and gold and in handbag she
carried jewelry worth about $4,000.
The German and Italian police were at
once informed, and every effort has
been made to trace her, without avail

On the ground a cigar cutter in tn,
form of a pistol, and half-smoked eli
gar, and a franc piece were found. A
mans handkerchief tied around the
woman's neck bore the letter C. The
murderer had not taken the rings OF
the earrings from his victim An i'm
portant statement was made by wo-
man who is regular frequenter OF
the Bots de Boulogne. She gave de-
scription of the man she saw follow
ing Juliette Souavin.
The crime has attracted more than
ordinary attention by reason of the
fact that the murderer attempted to
dig grave for the victim. The dancer
frequented certain houses, where she
herself lying in coffin. The
body has been removed for post
norton examination.

CARNEGIE'S NEW SCHEME.

There is a grim Scotch joke in tn:
Carnegie fund for the pensioning Of
ex-presidents, and he intends it to be
on all of us, as a people. In the con-
ditions to govern the pensioning of ex-
presidents and their unmarried wild
ows, to the amount of $25, 900 annually
it is stipulated that the fund shall con-
tinue, and the pensions be paid, only
until such time as the government
makes similar provision, or a more
liberal one. This rs the only thing
which saves the plan from denuncia-
ton as piece of supreme impudence
Mr. Carnegie would be pushing his
philanthropy entirely too far but for
this saving clause. AS the case stands,
we can only make ourselves ridicu-
lous by heated protests of our ability
to take care of our own. When we say
that, Mr.. Carnegie can answer with
the three short words, do it now,"
supplemented with the assurance that
he will take care of them until we are
able to do so.
A question remains, of course.
whether, after paying a man 100000
for four years service, and perquisites
enabling him to maintain a respect
able state without greater drafts upon
his salary than he might well make
in private life, we are under obliga-
ton to pension him for the rest of his
life, and his family after his death, at
figure commensurate with the main
tanning of a large establishment Pen
sioning an ex-president, if the justice |
and necessity of such pensions be
granted, need not mean pensioning /
them at figure sufficient to main
tain opulence. Such pensioning would
not accord with American ideas and
ideals. 1t smacks too much of the
huge appropriations made annually
by the parliament at London for the
support of idle members of the royal
amily, parasites on the body of organ
zed society. We should do nothing
which can be taken to be a step toward
he recognition of caste in this country

CAUGHT DIGGING GRAVE
OF WOMAN HE MURDERED

/ PARIS, Nov. 30.-The murder of a
dancer named Juliette Souavin, in the
Bots de Boulogne, is at present occupy
ing the attention of the Sherlock
Holmeses of the detective force. The
woman was walking in the wood with
two friends, but left her companions
and went off alone. She did not re-
turn, and search was made for her.
Shortly afterward man was found
engaged in the occupation of digging a
hole By his side lay the dead body
of the dancer. On being discovered the
man jumped on bicycle and rode off.
AS yet there is no trace of him. The
body was seen by M. Guichard, chief of
the detective force, and NJ Bertillon.
the director of the anthropometric
service, and other magistrates made a
careful examination of the spot, sew
eral photographs being taken.

FEAR LOSS OF WOMAN
DIPLOMATIC AGENT

! LONDON, Nov. 30.-The German en-
bassy, where the new ambassador
Prince Lichnowsky, has just arrived is
greatly perturbed over the mysterious
disappearance of Baroness Ellen Won
Lanzenhofen, well known in Berlin
society. The baroness, who acted as
confidential secretary to an official
high in the kaiser's favor, and was
often entrusted by the German govern
ment with confidential missions, van
ished while returning home from a
visit to London, and it is feared she
has been kidnapped by Matchmaking
gang.
The kaisar's government is anxious
to trace her, owing to her possession Of
important knowledge of international
affairs.
The famous novelist, William Lee
queux, friend of the baroness, gives
the following statement of the case,
which resembles the plot of one of his
own novels
"A month ago the baroness received
a mysterious telegram and RENTED
$500 by telegraph to bank in Wies-
baden. The following day, in conse-
quence of another urgent telegram,
she RENTED 500. Two days later she
received a letter from Milan which |
her great agitation-terror, it |
seemed to me. | inquired the reason !
If her agitation, and she replied:
"'Ah, you do not know They want
Ill my money. | must leave London at
,nce.'
''She begged me to find the next
rain to Cologne, and wired the Hotel
Arnst there to secure room. That

The Tang OF spe'nstss~s.

Written for The Messenger.
(By Clarence E Eddy.)
There's tang Of the springtime from
under the snow
Add soon the glad, sweet, balmy
breezes shall blow.
There's naught in this world that such
gladness doth bring
As this FIRST, faint, sweet, mystic
shrill OF the spring.
The robins return With . song that No
Foretells of the time when the bios
SONS shall blow
And joy welleth up from the hearts
hidden springs
At sound of the song that the sweet
robin sings-
Land that We love, by the rivers fair
shore,
Beauty immortal Febuilds evermore,
Life wakes anew when the winter tax
e. wing.
Joy shall return with the dawn Of
spring
Heart, let us hope that the springs
ever dawn
Fair upon lands where our loved ones
have gone,
Still, despite doubt, TO this faith let us
cling;
Death is door TO life, o deathless
spring.
