STUDENT BATTLES
SCHOOL PHYSICIAN
Young Man Is Unable to Rene m.
Der But Three Events of
Entire Life

PULLMAN, Wash, Dec. 12.-The
most remarkable case of lost identity
ever brought to the attention OF the
instructors IN psychology at the State
college Is that of a man, about 80
years old, intelligent and of studious
inclinatiOns, who enrolled In the de-
partment Of civil engineering at the
beginning OF the college year. He
gives the name OF William Summer
Vile, but the college authorities have
no proof that that Is his true name.
Every recollection OF his past life
Is blotted from his memory with the
exception Of three items.
Three Thinqs He Remembers.
Summerville says that he remem-
bers clearly that his parents were
drowned in the Galveston food. Be-
sides this he has faint remembrance
of seeing Maude Adams, the actress,
and OF being a member Of surveying
crew in central Washington some
months ago.
An examination OF Summerville by
the college professors In psychology
shows that he has an acquaintance or
surveying instruments. but that he IL
deficient In a knowledge of mathemat-
les essential to the practical surveyor.
He has proved an Industrious stu
dent and spends much spare time In
the college library reading works on
history and science. He seems famil'
lar with textbooks on botany and trig-
onometry.
Sofnmerville is tall and well built
and speaks with southern accent.
He Is paying his expenses at the col
lege by day labor on the new college
building.

MANY UNEMPLOYED
IN new YORK CITY
Army of Unskilled LabOrers Out
of Work Larger Than
Ever Before

NEW YORK, Dec. 12.-New York
city's army of unskilled labor Is larger
than II has been for four years.
This statement Is corrob0rated by
Edward Carpenter, manager of the
National Employment exchange, and
other large employers Of labor.
With daily announcements or lay.
offs by large industrial and railroad
corporations prospects are for FUR
Their increase in the number OF idle
workmen. One railroad contemplates
the discharge of about 10000 men.
and other large .systems are expected
to dismiss quite as many.
The National Employment exchange
Is q philanthropic institution. Otto T.
Barnard, president Of the New York
Trust Co., is its president. Other Of
ficials are l.. F. Loree, president OF
the Delaware & Hudson, and, Jacob
II. Schiff.
Mr.. Carpenter, discussing the scare
ity Of positions. said:
There are more honest, able-bod'
led workingmen out OF positions now
than at any time since 1909. The de-
mand for labor Is poorer than at any
time since then.
Since last summer We have found
practically no positions for unskilled
labor.
Last fall the demand was good.
and In one instance We sent LOO
men to the youngstown Sheet Tin Co.
Positions for laborers on the rail-
roads have been scarce. There Is
practically nothing doing In that d.
rection, whereas ordinarily they have
employment for large numbers OF un-
skilled men.
Construction companies have all
the men they want. Some are laying
them of. Corporations, instead OF
taking men, are also laying them on.
Our branch at No. SO Coeper-sq.
handles the position for unskilled
help. When l was there lately
found II filled with men.
AT No. 80 Church-st., We get posi-
lions for civil engineers, clerks, etc.
They have not been affected. but they
are always the last TO feel contraction
Of trade. Just the same as they are the
last to feel Improvement"

Three Volunteer To Rid Streets

NEW YORK, Dec. l3.-ln the Sixth
ward Of New Brunswick. n. j., there
strolled about the streets last night
three slender figures In slit skirts.
low brimmed velvet hats with plumes
on 'em, and all heavily yelled.
While oil did their best to walk like
perfect ladies, there we're many griev-
Gus lapses in these efforts, for the
three were slender, muscular young
men. and they were out trying to trap
a hugger who must be found.
In the last five nights in the Sixth
ward this hugger has attacked ~
young women and girls and a situa-
ton of actual terror has been created,
wherein women fear to go about the
streets unescorted.
In this district is the factory OF
Johnson & Johnson, makers OF surgi-
cal supplies, where forces work both
night and day. Fifteen hundred wo-
men and girls are employed there.
Charles A. Mccormick, superintend-
ent Of the plant. has had squads OF
men patroling the streets at night in
the hope Of capturing the assailant.
Rutgers college boys have also joined
In the hunt.
The hugger has not shown any bru.
tally toward his victims. He has SIM
ply been content to dart from behind
trees or out OF -doorways, seize q girl.
give her qnick hug, snatch kiss
and then take to his heels
Big hope was attached to the ruse
adopted last night, by which the three
doughty ffsted youths tried to make
themselves look as much as possible
like Gaby Deslys and went out as bait
for the hugger. but up to a late hour
last night he had not been caught.
