BELIEVES ROUGH ON RATS

BOSTON. Mass, April s." Trough
on Rats" is tine poison which killed
Rear Admiral Joseph Giles Eaton, in
the opinion of John III. Scott, State
detective. Mrs. Eaton, the widow, is
accused of the rear admirals death.
IF the poison was Rough on
Rats" as | now believe" said Mr..
Scott, Il doubt if we could be able
to trace the purchase. We have traced
back every step Mrs. Eaton made this
year in her trips away from home,
but we have not found that she
bought any poison"

Court to Tell How Man
Met His Death.

Because there was no freight engine
In the Federal Court today. John
Ader Of New Brunswick, could not
understand what Attorney George S.
Silzer was getting at"
Alder was a witness for the defense
in the case of Catherine Hickey
against the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company to recover $4,000 damages
for the death of her husband, an en-
gineer on the road.
Hickel, it is claimed, was struck by
a runaway freight car, loaded with
steel. The defense admits that the
car was not equipped with brakes,
Damaging evidence was introduced
by the defense to- show that Hickey
had tried To save a hose instead Of
himself. Adler yesterday had told the
story of Hiekey's alleged attempt to
rescue the hose and was recalled to-
day. II seemed Alder had changed
his mind about one point over night
In explaining why his mind
changed he said he did not under
stand tho questions of Attorney Sill
ger.
But l explained everything gra-
phically. Didn't ! use the table for
the engine?" asked the attorney i'm
patiently.
Eyes, but the table is not an en-
CINE" was the surprising answer. IF
you had the engine up here | would
have understood you?"
This statement almost took Judge
Relstabs breath away. WHATS
that?" he asked in amazement, and
Alder repeated It.
Attorney Silzer suggested that for
safety's sake perhaps it would be well
to bring the whole freight yard into
court The case is being continued

Business College for DonaldsonvilIe.

F. L. Heaton, field manager of
Draughon's Business College, is here
arranging for the opening of a
branch of that institution in this
city. An initial enrolment of thirty
students is required, and it is ex.
pected this number will be easily
secured. President Alex. Bloomen.
stiel and Secretary Vickers Of the
Progressive Union are assisting Mr..
Heaton in the preliminary arrange
ments for efe installation of the
school, and the business men and
citizens of the community are ex-
tending their cooperation. Suitable
quarters have been secured in the
second story of the Maurin building
at the corner. of Lessard and Missis-
slppi streets, and it is probable the
institution will be launched within
the next two weeks.
In conversation with Mr.. Heaton,
he said he is particularly well pleased
with. our town and people and the
prosperous farming community sur
rounding, and the outlook is very
bright for fine school.
This is one institution that any
town should be glad to- have, as it
not only keeps our young men and
young women at home, thereby cur
failing to a great extent the heavy
expense of business education
gained in other localities, but, the
one big thing of ALT gives our boys
and girls a practical education and
equlps them for the battle of life.
Mr.. Heaton expects to remain here
until the school is organized with at
least thirty students ana is started
off. The Draughon people place their
schools On a t.stay at home basis,
coming in with the desire to cooper
ate with the citizens OF the commu-
nifty in everything, and in turn ask
ing reciprocity on the part of the
citizens.
