Was Found.
SHE is STILL DELIRI0US
Love Affair Denied and Rela
tive Lays Her Plight to Over
work in Teaching-Hos-
pital Bars Inquirers.

The mystery surrounding Miss Alice
A. Mills. the public school teacher who
was taken unconscious from the water
at the foot OF Montague street. Brook
lyn. on Friday night, was still I'M
solved by the police last night. The
young woman is still in the LonG
Island College Hospital, and In her
lucid moments cannot explain her eX-
periences.
Thomas Thompson, floatmaster oil
the New York Dock Company, said
last night that he had been walking
by the old Wall street ferry slip, nj
Montague street and the East River
Just before he heard Miss Millss
groans. When he first heard them ne
was one hundred feet away There
was strange man standing by the
hole where the woman was discovered.
Did you hear any groans?' asked
Thompson Of him.
NO. / didn't hear anything" replied
the stranger, who then walked up Mon
tague street.
Thompson called William Murphy
and James Evans. Dock Company en-
ployes, who were working In the vicin-
ity, and descended into the hole. MISS
Mills was about TO sink She wore a
cape, but no hat. She was grasping a
handbag when raised from the water,
but dropped it.
After she had been rescued the
strange man returned. He was very
pale Thompson again went up TO him.
It's funny you didn't hear any
thing" said the foatmaster. II heard
her groans when I was a hundred feet
away and YOU were only couple OF
feet from the hole"
We'll. ] didn't" returned the man.
Acting on instructions from her rela-
tives. Superintendent Shaw Of the
Long Island College Hospital refused
information to all callers at the insti-
tuition. including the police Richard
G. Ellsworth. a cousin of Miss Mills,
and who lives at No. llfO Pacific
street. said last night that he believed
she was suffering from a nervous
breakdown, due TO overwork In con-
GIcting q large kindergarten class at
Public School SO. at Vandervoort
Place and Thames street.
The overwork theory is partly SUBJ
stantiated by Mrs. y. Mcdonald, OF
No. ~ South Elliott Place, whose
home is next door to that of Mrs.
Walter Eckert. with whom Miss Mills
lived at No. 66 South Elliott Place.
Mrs Mcdonald said yesterday that
about 10 o'clock on Thursday night.
in answer TO a ring Of the doorbell,
she found Miss Mills standing on the
stoop.
As Miss Mills passed into the house
Mrs. Mcdonald noticed that her hair
was unkempt and was hanging down
her back. Not a word was uttered by
Miss Mills. and this surprised Mrs.
Mcdonald, as they knew each other
well.
Mrs. Mcdonald said that after as
cending a few steps toward the Sec
ond floor Miss Mills stopped and then
walked abruptly out Of the house
without speaking. other residents Of
the neighborhood said they had no.

A CAMPAIGN OF ODDITIES.
When the Log Cabin and Hard cidel
Enthusiasts Rejoiced.

Enthusiasts Rejoiced.
Political enthusiasm has taken many
forms during the lifetime of this ma
ton. The Harrison-Van Buren, presi-
Dental campaign of 1910 was in some
respects the most remarkable the coun-
try has ever seen. From May till No
vember," says one historian. 1T seemed
as if all ablebodied citizens simply
went about in professions to attend
mass meetings"
The great oddly of the campaign
was the log cabin, the coon and the CT
der barrel. The log cabin idea origi
mated with an opposition paper which
had said sfghtinGly that William
Henry Harrison better go back to In
diana and stay there in his log cabin
drinking hard cider"
The taunt was taken up by Harri.
sons followers. Log cabins sprang up
all over the Union. In every town
there was house warming. and the log
cabin was thrown open to the public
amid general rejoicing. On the roof
was a live raccoon, and q barrel of
cider stood before the door, where any
one who desired might drink all he
chose.
1t was a campaign of oddities. Some
of the symbols have never been sur
passed for genuine Observation-Disclosures

Position of Patrol Driver
Filled BY Motion.

Harry Otte, patrol and ambulance
driver, resigned his position last
night and his place was filled today
by John Motion, formerly patrol
driver
Otte gave no reason for his sudden
action and it is believed his act was
prompted by the criticism to which he
was subjected when he failed to re-
move Thomas Wiggans to the Reid
Memorial hospital Immediately after
Virgins had been fatally injured in
fall. Otte contended that his Or
ders had been not to take any one to
the hospital unless ordered to do so
by physician.
The police commissioners will meet
tonight at which time the resignation
of Otte will be formally accepted.
