FAIL TO SOLVE MYSTERY.
German Consuls and Newspapers Ask.
ed to Aid Investigation.

Petersburg, Va, Jan.2.-The jury Of
inquest yesterday afternoon failed to
find any evidence TO establish the iden-
tity of the stranger who was killed
Sunday night in Chesterfield county,
supposedly by train on the Atlantic
Coast Line railroad, nor was it estaD-
lished by what train he was killed, if
death came in that way.
The verdict was that the stranger
came to his death by some cause, or
causes, unknown to the jury, he having
apparently been run over and dragged
by some car or train of the Atlantic
Coast Line railroad
Believing the descedent to have been
a German, the German consuls and
newspapers in this country have been
notified to make inquiry.

THIRTEEN is NO HOODOO.
So Says President-Elect Who Finds
That it Brings Good Luck.

Princeton, N. j., Jan. 2.-"Another
lucky years has started-the year
1913"-was the observation made yes
ierday by President-elect Woodrow
Wilson, whose life so far has proved
continues refutation of the old super
stition regarding the ih-fortune of Is.
President-elect Wilson's 13 has proved
a signal of good luck and in discuss
ing this question today he said: "How
the number 49, has figured in my life
always in connection with some
good fortune. You know the electoral
college which is to cast it's vote Off
cially electing me to the presidency, is
to meet January 13. 1913. Perhaps you
hsve noticed that if the numerals max
ing up the year 1912, in which l was
elected president, were added up, the
total is 13. 1t is also fact that mine
is the thirty first terms, and if these
numbers are placed backward the re-
suit is 49,"
The President-ele watched the old
year out and the new one in, retiring
IS minutes after IL o'clock.
Further in connection with the re-
vcrred superstition of 13. Mr.. Wilson
was professor at Princeton Univer-
sity thirteen years and was the thir-
teenth president of that institution.
Mr.. Wilson frequently points out that
there are thirteen letters in the name
Woodrow Wilson, for he never uses
his Christian name, Thomas. Upon
his recent trip from Bermuda he left
his cottage there on Friday, December
18th.
The first person to wish the Presi-
dent-elect a Happy. New Year was
Richard Taylor, the secret service
agent, who is Mr.. Wilson's bodyguard.

The optimists had decidedly the bet

certain that the fact that the Ottoman
ENJOYS came down to earth and sub
mitted contemporaries that the al
lies could discuss, even though they
rejected them indicated that the Porte
really intended to make peace, and
that instructions now on their way
from Constantinople would authorize
the Turkish plenipotentiaries to make
further concessions to insure an early
agreement.

journed for the Christmas holidays
