WON'T PROSECUTE NEW HAVEN ROAD
 FOR FATAL WRECK

New Haven, Sept. 27.-There will be no prosecution of New Haven Rail- road officials by the authorities of Connecticut for the fatal North Ha- ven wreck, although Attorney General McReynolds advised one. The ques- ton of prosecution lies primarily with Coroner Eli Mix, who made the in vestigation for the States attorney, with whom he filed report recently laying the blame for the wreck on four employees and making no recom- mendation regarding the railroad off, cials.
 Coroner Mix was asked last even ing about his plans for adopting the suggestion of MT. McReynolds and be- ginning prosecution against the rail- road. He answered:
 ffI have made my finding in the case and I propose to stick to it.
 States Attorney filling simply called attention to the coroner's report. No action by either is expected, although neither has made a definite statement to that effect

Miscellaneous Shower
 Rendered to Miss Swanson

Despite the fact that atmospheric conditions predicted a clear and bright evening last night, there was quite some shower over at Officer and Mrs. Lundberg's home, 1461 Iran1stan ave nue, in honor of Miss Alma I. Swan sons approaching marriage to their son, MT. Ellis A. Lundberg. It was a surprise miscellaneous shower. It took a few minutes before Miss Alma could control her emotions long enough te step in out of the shower, after which she tried to voice her thanks to those present despite the sudden attack of snuffles. A delightful evening was spent with solos, piano selections and games. The refreshments looked very inviting upon the artistical1y arranged dining room table. Among the ladies present were Misses A. Swanson, A. Edman, H. Anderson, H. Hedberg, E Hedberg, B. Ogren, H. Johnson, H. Lundahl, E. Williamson, N New1an- der. O. B. Froberg, A. Swanson, J. Anderson, W. Weston, F. Anderson. G. Virgin, E.

GOV. FOSS URGES
 PROBING OF NEW
 HAVEN ROAD LOBBY

Boston, Sept. 27.-Edward D. Rob-
 bins, general counsel, for the New
 York; New Haven and Hartford Rail- road, before the Public Service Com mission yesterday replied to the re- cent criticisms Of the directors by the Interstate Commerce Commission in a report on the North Haven wreck. He said:
 Since our previous session there has come from high authority criti- cism Of the directors. It has been said that instead of devoting themselves to financial questions they should have given their attention to the safety of the railroad.
 t"The operation of a railroad is a highly scientific undertaking and one that requires skill and technical train ing. The ordinary director cannot properly interfere with it. All he can do is to engage highly trained men of ability and skill and entrust the op- eration of the railroad to them. This the directors have done by engaging MT. Elliott. The directors are now en- deavoring to provide MT. Elliott with the means to operate the road safely. But the directors and MT. Elliott can not operate the railroad unless money is raised on it's bonds.
 '+The $21, ,0O0, 900 to be raised under the plan before you is to be expended for the purpose of making the railroad safe for the travelling public.''
 Bradley M. Palmer, attorney for the New Haven shareholders asserted that neither the Massachusetts Legislature nor the board created by it could control the issuance of stock or bonds by the New Haven to raise money to. be spent in another State. Chairman Mcleod seemed much annoyed. He said that he would disapprove of the request to issue the bonds in question or any other request until the New Haven road showed a disposition to comply with the Massachusetts laws.
 Gov. F'oss sent a letter to Chairman n Macleod yesterday urging the com mission to secure a certified account ing in detail of the money spent by the New Haven during the last ses- sion Of the Legislature. He asks for a searching investigation of the reIa- ton of the railroad management to the Legislature, and to certain parti- san leaders.
 'It is relevant to ask what sort of legal services were rendered by these men, the Governor wrote. 'tOne of these gentlemen, who received $10,O00 six months ago, and who has been the most active supporter in the recent primary fight of the present Republi- can candidate for Governor, is report ed to have said that he had forgotten for what purpose this money was paid him. If so, I urge you to assist his in any available manner.''

HOME OF BEN FRANKLIN IN
 LONDON IS DOOMED

London, Sept. 27-The quaint little house in Craven street where Ben jan1in Franklin lived in his more prosperous days, and from which he issued his delightful series of papers called the Craven Street Gazette" forms part of a block of property which has been purchased for the construction of large hotel, and, unless immediate steps are taken to save 1t, this historical building will made to Americans to save the house and a proposal will be made to the hotel builders to include Franklins s rooms within the new building.
 The house is now conducted as a small residential hotel, much ire quented by Americans It bears above the front doorway the follow ing tablet, Lived here Benjamin Franklin, printer, philosopher and statesman. Born 17O6, died 1790."
 Here the great American phiIoso- pher resided after he had served his hard apprenticeship in London and during the absence of his IandIady, tained his fellow boarders with the is sue of a whimsical series of papers called the Craven Street Gazette'' One of the paragraphs was as fol- lows: "At six o'clock this afternoon news came by the post that Her Ma
  safely at Rochester on Saturday night. The bells immediately rung for candles to illuminate the par1or: the court went into cribbage, and the evening concluded with every demon stration of joy.''
 The tablet was affixed to the house, which has been rebuilt, but in the same style as when Franklin lived in it, by the Society of Arts, before the London County Council undertook the work of marking the one-time homes of eminent persons in London. Franklin was not the only famous resident of Craven street. At va- rfous periods the poet Akenside and Heinrich Heine lived there, and Jas. Smith, the author of Rejected Ad- dresses died in a house not far from the Franklin house. In his Comic Smith wrote: '.In Craven street, Strand, ten attor-
 neys find place, And ten dark coal barges are moored
 at it's base;
 Fly Honesty Fly! seek some safer re-
 treat,
 craft in the street.
 About this Sir George Rose wrote the following lines:
 Why should honesty fly to some saf-
 CT retreat,
 From barges and attorneys, 'od rot
 'em?
 For the lawyers are just at the top of
 the street
 And the barges are just at the bot
 tom"
 Business judgment rather than sen -iment probably will lead the hotel owners to include the Franklin apart nents within their new building, as several historic houses of entertain nent in London pay heavy dividends American tourists put up with bad food and poor service.

CannibaIs Prefer
 Dark Meat When They Prepare Feast

Berlin, Sept. 27-That cannibals
 seldom eat white captives and then without particular zest is the gist of
 a scientific report on the subject made by Dr. Holman, formerly a consul in Africa and an authority on the sub-
 ject of tribal customs.
 Writing of the recent murder of the German-Americans nnineralogist, John Henry Warner, by natives of New Guinea, Dr. Holman asserts that
 the abstention of cannibaIs in Africa and of Guinea from the flesh of white men is not because they fear the spirit of the white victim or his pow
 CTS of magic, has sometimes been assumed, but because they consider that it has an unpleasant taste due to the use of sharp spices and condi- ments and of salted dishes in the diet of the European.
 pr. Holman cites an article printed several years ago in a journal of Li- beria, in which it was said that the cannibals in the Liberian territory eat a white man only when he has fallen into their hands alive. Then the Vic- tim is immersed to the neck in a running brook and held there by bonds for two or three days, on much the same principle that an oyster is f1oated in fresh water after being to- ken from the beds. pr. Holman had confirmation of this from a for mer cannibal.
 The reported killing and eating of MT. Warner, in Papua, by, the natives has called attention to the fact that cannibalism is by no means stamped out in New Guinea. Warner believ- ed that radium could be found in Pa pua and fell a, victim to his own zeal. It is reported that his two native companions escaped his horrible fate, the news of which they brought to the coast.
 At one time official circles believed that cannibalism was a thing of the past in British New Guinea, but clear evidence that it has persisted into the present decade has been provided by uninpeachable witnesses. In a book published last year, J. H. P Murray, cia1 officer of Papua, has much to say about the practice of cannibaIisrn among the natives in the island. He writes about boiling springs which not many years ago were made use of for cooking any prisoners captured in the village warfare.
 Describing the northeastern divis- ion of the island, Murray quotes a na- tive witness, who, telling of the eating of human bodies, said: "We boil them; we cut them up and boil them in a pot. We boil babies, too; we cut them up like a pig. We eat them cold or hot; we eat the legs first We eat them because they are like fish. We have fish in the creeks and kanga- roos in the grass-but men are our. real food"
 MExray tells of the remark of a Ferguson Islander to a stranger who wanted to buy betel nuts from him: Why should sell you betel nut; I am going to eat you.'' Which he promptly did. He also writes of a crew of shipwrecked Chinese, who were eaten one by one, until the cap tors, surfeited with the diet, peddled those who were left around the coast selling them to the highest bidders. Wives, who ventured to look around during the funerals of their husbands were killed and eaten. One native who was concerned in the killing of a netghhoxing chief and his-tzzo wives

APPENDICITIS
 FROM WATER?
French Scientific Review Says Wine Drinkers Seem lm-
 mune.

Paria Sept. 27-That appendicitis is aue to water drinking is the remark able theory put forward by a leading scientific review. The statistics col lected tend to show that only in 20O wine drinkers is attacked by the nal ady, while 10 per cent of water drink CTS are said to be victims
 It is also pointed out that appendi- citis has become vastly more frequent, especially among the well-to-do class es since water drinking has become fasha0nabIe- namely. during the last srenty-hve years, and the remarkable case is cited of a family of sixteen of whom six, who are water drinkers, had to be operated upon. while the others were immune.
 The theory offered by several prom lnent medical men to account for these facts is not that water contains a mi crobe which may cause the complaint, for many sufferers drink mineral or boiled water, but that wine is anti septic and keeps down the baciI1i, which. when they become too numer- ous. may cause appendicitis.

the study and treatmen of all forms of mental and nervous disorders.
 A. Phimister Procter, the famous sculptor of wild animals, was born in the Province of Ontaria ffty-one years ago to-day. MT. Procter found models for many of his famous works in the Bronx "Zoo,'' and others in the wilds of Alberta and British Co., lumbia, where he has made many hunting trips into the forest wiIds in search of local color. The scuIp- tors lions and tigers are so lifeHke as to strike fear in the heart of the beholder, while one of his bears or partners, if placed in a forest trail, would almost certainly make a Nim- rod reach for his gun, or climb a tree. Moose, partners, elephants, buffaloes and deer are among MT. PrOcter's remarkable creations. On one of his hunting trips the sculptor lived for some time with the Black feet Indians, by whom he was adopt ed, and christened "Omikatayo," or wild cat.' MT. Procter left Cana da in his youth, removing to Color ado, where as a boy he hunted deer and wildcats, and drew pictures of animals. The friendship of Mi11et enabled MT. Procter to go tO Paris, where he studied under Puech and Inga1bert. From the first MT. Procter specialized in animals, and had no trouble in getting the beasts to pose for him.

told of the subsequent eating of the victims with the utmost unconcern.
 He told of eating the hand of one wife, but refused to touch the other, as he had killed her, and it was not the custom of his tribe to eat ones own victim. The two women were singed first, then cut up into small pieces, mixed with sago, cooked, wrapped up in leaves, and distribut- ed to the victors, including their wo- men and children.
