days primaries by James j. O'Byrne,
who had been put into the contest by
United States Senator William Hughes
whose reception at the White House
has not been very enthusiastic of late.
Mr.. Cabell is now Judge of the Pas
sale District Court, having been ap-
pointed by Mr. Wilson when he was
Governor OF New Jersey.
Mr.. Cabell had the backing Of all Of
President Wilson's friends in the eth
District and the entry Of Mr. O'Byrne
into the contest was considered an
affront to the wishes Of the President,
although Mr.. Wilson maintained that
ne was taking no part in the contest.
The contest on the Republican side
was close. Dow II. Drukker winning
from the other ten candidates by LOO
votes. John NJ. Ward was second.
The vote was light about one-half

Be A SPINSTER and
LIVE LONG, He SAYS
Longevity Also Assured by
Taking Endowment Pol
icy, Actuary Asserts.

The spinster lives longer than the
married woman.
The business woman lives longer than
the business man.
The woman who takes out an endo" =
ment policy lives longer than the
woman who takes out a straight life
policy.
These facts-and Arthur Hunter. &C.
tuary Of the New York Life Insurance
Company, said they were facts last
night at the monthly meeting Of the
Life Underwriters Association Of New
York in the Hotel AstOr-were gathered
last year by experts in the employ o.
the forty-three leading companies in
this country.
Mr.. Hunter didn't explain why the
unmarried woman survives The matron,
nor why the business woman outlives
the business man. but he revealed why
the woman who takes unto herself an
endowment policy lasts longer than the
woman who has to die TO win.
The endowment woman just gets
up her spirit and determines to live
until the policy natures" ne said.
The other woman sighs, oh, what's
the use. and shuffies off"
Mr.. Hunter said there were more
fatal accidents in this country than
elsewhere because Of the American
I'll take a chance spirit. The Ameri-
can. he said, takes all sorts Of risks to
save time and inconvenience. The for
eigner doesn't do that at home, but
when he comes here he becomes in
fected.
The mortality rate among engineers
in other callings,' he said, and among
policemen about 40 per cent higher
With policemen IT IS on the increase"
Mr. Hunter said that the business
woman kept herself going by a deter
mination 70 fight it out. She had some
thing tangible: something TO live for,
whereas the business man takes his
work as matter of course and is
apathetic.
Among saloonkeepers VINO do not
tend bar the mortality rate is 80 per
cent above normal; among saloonkeep-
ers who do il is 80 per cent higher.
The mortality rate among women is IL
per cent lower than among men.

GIRL, AS BURGLAR,
FLEES, THEN FIGHTS
Apartment Door Is Forced
and Housewife FelIed
by Intruder.
FISTS AND HATPIN
USED ON PURSUERS
HObble Skirt Aids Sleuths. Who
Nab Prisoner by Ruse in
Brooklyn Street.

A comely looking girl Of nineteen. a
burglar the police call her. was ar
rested yesterday afternoon at s o'clock
after IT Is alleged, she had "jimmied'
her way into a Williamsburg home,
stolen several articles. knocked down
the housewife who detected her, en-
gagged in a hand hand fight with a
crowd that pursued her d blocS, and
finally tried TO whip two detectives
with a hatpin.
And she would have made her escape
but for her hobble skirt, the detectives
admit.
The girl. locked in a cell in the Her
bert street station, is silent about her
self She declined to give any informa- =
ton except that she was Charlotte
Paine and lived at No. 33S Ten Eyck
street. This IS a tenemnt house, and a
canvass Of II proved that the address
was fictitious.
1t was shortly after ) o'clock that
Mrs. Annie Berger, OF No. SO Debevoise
street, went into her husbands butcher
shop in front ot the rooms where she
lives with her husband and daughter
She was busy with customers, but
looked up i'm time TO see woman leave
her sitting room carrying her daughter
Sarah's fur coat and other wearing ap-
pareL
Mrs. Berger screamed, rushed out and
grappled with the intruder, who threw
knocked Mrs. Berger down and fed to
the street.
The girl gathered up her hobble skirt
and ran with a crowd in pursuit Mrs.
Berger remained behind long enough 10
discover that her door had been skill
fully "jimmied" and the rooms ran
sacked. She then Joined in the chase,
which had ended at Morrell street,
where the girl stopped and gave battle.
She was beating her pursuers, when
Detectives Ferris and Fiaschetti. Of the
Stagg street station, ran UP.
The girl then grabbed her hatpin and
charged the detectives. They side
stepped and executed two flank move
ments. In second they had her arms
pinioned to her sides.
When the excitement had subsided a
gold watch and chain. identified by
Mrs. Berger as her daughters property
was found or the sidewalk. The
Jimmy" had disappeared.
The theory was advanced oy the de-
tectives that the girl has been robbng
Williamsburg homes by applying for
employment at likely looking places.
Where she found the housewife absent
from home a burglary followed, the po-
lice say.
The girl will be arraigned in the Man
haitian avenue court to-day. Meanwhile
her finger prints and measurements
