MICE STEAL MANY STAMPS
Carpenters Discover Thieves of Three Years After Secret Service Men
 Search in Vain.

New York, May 22.-Stamps have been disappearing from the Yonkers postoffice for the last three years. Postoffice inspectors were sent from Washington and secret service agents worked for weeks Every clerk in the office was watched on duty and off, but to no purpose. The stamps con tinued to disappear.
 The mystery became so baffling aft CT $75 worth of stamps had disap- peared in a short time that the stamp clerk was called on to make good the shortage. He demurred but did so on learning that it was $75 or his job.
 Workmen began to tear down a wall in the rear of the postoffice. In the wall the thieves were found. Mice had built a nest out of stamps. The clerk who made good the $75 shortage will ask the government to reimburse him.

CROWD BLOCKS WAY OF DR. LA.
 GORIO AND FIANCEE.
Sued for s20,ooo BaIm-Action Not Directly Blamed-CroWds Held
 Back at Pistol Point.

Chicago, May 22.-After half an hours delay, struggling through riot ing crowds that packed the streets for block or more around St. Pro- copius' Roman Catholic church, Dr. Frank Lagorio, who was sued for $20,000 for alleged breach of promise two days ago, and Miss Ala Timer were married The suit was brought by Miss Emily Higgins, who alleged Dr. Lagorio had led her to believe she was to be his wife.
 The riots were not engineered by friends of Miss Huggins. In one of her interviews she had announced she would prevent the wedding at all costs, even to the point of abducting Dr. Lagorio, but a few hours before the ceremony she announced she would remain quietly at home and not interfere in any way, letting the courts handle her claim.
 10000 Block Way of Bridal Party.
 The widespread notoriety attached to the wedding, however, brought a crowd of more than 10000 persons, impelled by curiosity and expectation of trouble.
 Two sets of reserves were sent to the scene in police automobiles.
 With Lieut.. O'Brien waving his re- volver in the face of the mob, path was cleared SO that the bridal party could enter the church. Immediately, however, the entrance and the street in front of the church were blocked and many of the guests were unable to force their way through.
 Partisans of Misses Triner and Hug gins engaged in fisticuffs freely, and many women and children caught in the crush were roughly handled. Guests who had arrived an hour be- fore the hour set for the ceremony huddled in the church, not knowing the nature of the riots outside and fearful 1t was an organized attack by the Huggins party.
 Bridal Pair Struggled Out.
 After the nasty wedding ceremony the bridal party was smuggled out and hurried to the residence of the brides father, where torn clothing and minor scratches were repaired be- fore the banquet was served Great crowds also surrounded the residence, but there was no disorder.

WALKERS GREAT VITALITY HELPS BATTLE AGAINST MER-
 CURY TAKEN BY MISTAKE.
THREW OFF SOME OF POISON
Phyeician Did Not Reach Him Until His Kidneys Had Been Para lyzed-Aids Doctors in
 Every Way.

Macon, Ga, May 22.-Despite asser- tions by several physicians that he cannot live, B. Sanders Walker. the young banker who swallowed a seven grain bichloride of mercury tablet by mistake last Wednesday night is making desperate battle for life.
 Walkers remarkable vitality is pug zling physicians and specialists throughout the country. Doctors be- lieved the end was near, but the pa tient assured them he was determined to live, and rallied slightly. His pulse was 126, respiration 31, temperature 99.
 Walkers remarkable vitality, physi- clans partly attribute his resistance to the poison up to this time to the fact that he spat out portion of he bl- chloride of mercury tablet soon after it was swallowed
 Kidneys Quickly Parslyzed.
 It was this development which alarmed the banker and caused him to call physician, who removed the contents of Walkers stomach. The physician. however, arrived after the poison had taken sufficient effect to paralyze the kidneys.
 All the members of Walkers i'm mediate family were gathered at his home here. Every precaution is being taken to prevent the patient from be- coming unduly excited. Only his wife. the attending physicians and nurses are permitted to enter the room.
 Telegrams containing suggestions for treatment still are being received at the Walker home from every sec tion of the country.
 Walker says he has not given up hope and will aid the doctors in every way possible He jokes occasionally, and once, when the sweating" process was being applied, he asked if they were giving him the third degree"
 A mystery is that there has been little pain since the first few hours after he swallowed the poison.
