Held on Ugly Charges.

London, Nov. 24.-The arrest OF
John Love Elliot, a wealthy consult
ing engineer, of New York, reported
from East Grjastead; Sussex,
was made on charges of the most
serious and fragrant character.
The arrest was made by the. police
on the allegations of neighbors who
laid before the authorities certain
circumstances which they declared
had been related by two girls said to
be his daughters and who were living
alone with him at Hammerwood
House.
Elliot has resided in England for
several years. He has business ad-
dress in London in connection with
some rubber and other companies and
for a long time his mail has been
forwarded there from New York.
The two girls are II and 19 years
old. while Elliot appears to be in the
forties. He is evidently wealthy
man as he took Hammerwood House,
a fine Georgian mansion, furnished,
and has been residing there with the
girls since March % last.
Elliot has been three times mar
ried. His first wife died Is years ago,
leaving two daughters. His second
wife, who was Miss Ethel Irene Stew
art, an opera singer, obtained dl-
vorce from him in 1907, and 1t is
stated that daughter was born in
this marriage. His third wife was
Miss Laura Moore.
The character of the charges has
raised a doubt in some quarters as
to whether the girls living with Elliot
are really his daughters and also as
to the sanity of the accused. The
police maintain absolute silence on
the case and the evidence at yester-
days hearing in the local police court
was given behind closed doors. 1t
was sufficiently serious to cause the
magistrate to remand the accused
in custody for week.
In the meantime the girls have
been taken from Hammerwood
,Huse, which is in q secluded spot in
the center of 900 acres of grounds,
and have been placed in charge of
a DR.. Wallis, who was called in by
the police.

Boy Stole to Go to School.

I've been crazy about going to OK
ford university, and when I saw all
this money in my hands, I couldn't
resist taking it,
That was the story told by lad
of II when he was arrested in New
York. A few hours more and he
would have been aboard the Maure-
tania and off for England. Slowed
away in his clothing was s1,400 in
cash-enough to keep him for three
years at the university.
Before the boy was returned by the
New York police, a Cleveland news
paper man called at his home. On
his book shelves were volumes OF
poetry. In one corner stood a copy
of Tom Brown at Oxford-the book
that had obsessed him with a desire
to go to the great English university.
By day he performed his duties as
stock boy in a department store,
earning 81 week, part of which
went regularly to the family sup
port. He was prompt and trust
worthy and was scheduled for early
advancement.
Night after night he sat poring
over his books. His mother recalled
his keen disappointment when he
was taken out of high school at the
end of his second year and put to
work, because the family could not
afford to keep him in school longer:
'He spent every cent he could save
out of his spending money for books, y
said his mother. Hes been at me
for months to buy him the Encyclo-
pedia Britannica"
What the firm is willing to do in
the case has been stated by its vice
president. eff all this is true, If the
boy wants higher education and has
the mental qualifications, I'll see that
he gets 1.-THE Survey.

One afternoon not long ago a GER

depressed by loneliness. His own
brother had gone away for a week,
and the lad across the street with
whom he played occasionally, was

toys that he found amusing.

their platforms swell with pregnant promises of reform, but those prom ises are long in the filling, Wick trsham, with the voters of Alaska, want those promises fulfilled. they do not want lawyers, or anyone else, to spend legislative time in finding out how-nOt-to-do-it.
 Speaking on the subject We quote the following from the Daily Dispatch:
 The Dispatch extends it's congrat- ulatiOns to the gentleman from Sit ka. On the bills introduced, Mir. Shoup has introduced four out of seven. Most of them are In com pliance with the platform on which the First District legislators were elected, and they are all good bills.
 The Dispatch most respectfully calls attention of the other sena- tors to thu fact that this IS now tho middle Of the session, anu none O. them have introduced a btll, There are still few platform pledg IS which have been overlooked There is, for instance, the general eight hour bill, and then again there is, for another instance the memorial for the abolition of the fish trap. or course all of the leg 1! lators mean to accomplish the en- ectment of all the measures promis- el on the platform on which they were elected, and probably they do not realize that it is quite important to get in early with any bills which are to be p ssed. It often takes e great while to get a bill through the committee, and along about the mid dle of a session of legislature, calendar gets very crowded. Let as not forget that it was SO tho people get enacted into law the things which they desired that they agitated so long for Home Rule.

Charles lugersOll, the how-not-to- do-it member of the new Alaska legis- Iature from Ketchikan, came in for a Ii.tle reprimand at the hands of Ielegate Wickersham at a joint meeting of the legislature the other day. Charles is a lawyer and quotes nicely from the classics. Though he has been out of college for many years he can still squeeze in enough Latin phrases and Emerson obscuri- ties to utterly beIuddle his hearers. It might be said of him as was for merly said of some of the Latin poets:
 They often wrote things that no one understood, and not infrequent' !. things they did not understand themselves"
 Charles opened the lower house oi the legislature with some of his musical utrerances. The most eN' uuisite tinkIiug cymbals and melii' fru us brass. In words as delicate .s honey-dew he told how 1t could aor-be-doue. and in the telling be had the applause of every lily nng- cred expIoiter of labor and prosper ny strangler in Alaska.
 Now Delegate Wickersham IS also . lawyer. and it IS said that he can whisper a few sugared nothings himself when the lights are turned way down low. But in public ar fairs the difference in them is tna' Wickersham is a potential force 10 argument and oratory. He is con st-uctive taIker when requirement occasions it.
 Every member of the Alaska leg stature has promised to do certain things. They have promised to paS' m Australian ballot system they have promised to abolish fish traps
