new YORK day BY DAY

Not thing has been pulled off in
New York since the first of the year
that hadn't first been thought of by a
dramatist.
Some Italian warrior found that the
steel body armor he bought in China
town made him itch during the first
warm days-and however much arm
or nay look like the parior stove, you
can't open a door through which to
scratch. So he left his armor at home
one day-and the feudists who had
heen waiting for him bumped him
~ Nothing new in that sort Of a
story. You a read similar tragedies
in the Old Testament. A runaway
gun-man leaped into the subway, and
train and caught him. Good stuff. Of
course, but Harry Clay Blaney played
the same thing on the Pickering
Wick. circuit eighteen years ago.

CARVE fears for his safety.
He disappeared somewhere between
Bismarck and Mandan Tuesday after
noon, or at least after h train left
the station in this city.
Through freight No. sos left this
station at 4:4O in the afternoon at
which time Ruethford was seen climb
ing from a box car onto a fiat a
about ten or fifteen cars back from
the engine. This was h last seen of
him. Upon arriving at the switch in
Mandan he failed to appear. and it was

was nowhere to be found. a search

to find any signs of the missing man
along the track. They then returned
to Mandan afoot, intending to search
both sides of the track.
The fact hat Reuthford did not
complete the duties of his run, and
cannot be found in either city. and
has failed to report, leads to the sup
position that he may have fallen into
the river.
The freight train was thoroughly
searched upon its arrival in Mandan.
but no trace Of the missing mar dis
covered or anything to indicate what
may have become of him.
Two men are under arrest as sus-
poets.
Railroad men are of the belief that
Reuthford may have been assaulted
by thugs. beating their way ON the
train and his body thrown into the
Missouri river when the train was
crossing the Missouri river.
Mr.. Reuthford roomed in James,

Btore.
Superintendent Strachan returned
this afternoon from Bismarck but
without any definite information re-
Earding the missing man.

Harry Thaw, slayer of Stanford
White. Is very much pleased over the
Impression he made with the New
York grand jury when he testified
before it last week. The jury is SEEK
ing to determine whether there was
a conspiracy in the course of the re-
cent efforts to procure Thaw's release
from the Matteawan hospital for the
criminal insane. and whether bribery
or attempted bribery had any part in
them.
Thaw testified for three hours and
forty-fve minutes. He was coherent
throughout. He believes hat from.

who will testify as to his sanity
should he seek again to have it put
to judicial test.

Sure enough, Washington made four

Sam Blythe says that the oldest joke in
the world is that aged and decrepit
humoresque dealing with the. innocent
person who swallowed a teaspoonful of
tabasco sauce. Unblushingly, Mr.. Blythe
admits to his friends that all the jokes
are old, and that every time YOU look too
closely at an alleged new one YOU will
find beneath the surface the timbers of
some old witticism which sprang from
the seven original jokes about the time
the Nineyeh Morning Baked Brick first
issued comic supplement
To prove his WantOn theory that there
is no new humor under the sun, not even
his own. Mr.. Blythe once said to Henry
Litchfield West that he could drag out
the oldest joke in the world and with the
proper manipulation work 1t over into a
frcnt-paSe laugh. He diVed into his
morgue of comatose humor and fished
out this one:
Two Irishmen went into restaurant
and ordered steak. Before the steak
came one of them seized q bottle of ia
basco sauce and drank a large swallow
thinking it was a cocktail. As the tears
wefled to his eyes and ran down upon
his napkin his friend asked him sympa-
thetically what was the trouble. The
original Tabasco Kid, not wanting to
show his ignorance of restaurant mys-
teries. replied:
Il was thinking of me father who died
when | was a little child"
The second Irishman. i'm a few seconds,
followed Tabasco Kids example and
drank what remained of the fiery stuff
in the little red bottle. Then when he
started TO weep. his friend asked him
the reason:
