with Germany. ...
New Yerk.-There is a difference,
between London and New York fig

dead. The names Of the two Ameri-,
cans who are said to have perishedi

New Nork.-There has been a per,
sistent report in naval circles that thet
Germans we're ''geing to get" the,
Arabic. The Arabic has been thorn,
in Germany's side. It has been Eng
lands best boat for transporting war
supplies. It has been a floating arse
nal on every trip out of New York.
Capt Finch of the Arabic was con-
sidered the slickest submarine dodg-
er in the English marine service. It
has been said here that seamen
aboard the Arabic had a gun club and
practiced with rifles of such high
power that their. bullets could put a
submarine out of commission.

Bruguiere of this city received a

New Idea In Gymnastics.

Cliff-climbing has become tame
sport for the students of the Philadel
phia College of Pharmacy. Signing for
a new method of testing the condition
of the nerves, the physical instructor
w. Ward Beam, hit upon decided
novelty crossing a river on rope
bridge.
The idea possessed one charm: the
outfit was cheap and easily portable,
for it consisted of two stout ropes and
nothing more. One rope, according tc
the plan broached to the eager stu
dents and co-eds by the physical In
structor. was to serve as a support fol
the foot, the other to balance the one
who essayed to cross river on this
precarious foothold.
According to Mr.. Beam, the object
Of the rope-walking is simply to
harden the nerves of the students. We
lack nerve. he says. chiefly because
we never do anything to cultivate
strength in that direction.
This novel form of gymnastics is
now part Of the college curriculum
and the women students are as expert
at it as the men.

many the most beautiful of it's kind in

the Institute displays interesting loan

other material. During September,
four loan exhibitions are planned. One
that is sure to arouse great interest
is the exhibition of paintings by VIII.

Other exhibitions are by the late

RETURNS; WIFE is Welded
After 16 Years Absence, ModerE
Enoch Arden Finds Daughter
Full Grown Girl.

WinOna.-After an absence Of IL
years, Ignatz Antochowski returned tc
find his wife married to another. She
was married two months ago to j
Lang, believing that her first husband
was dead.
When the modern Enoch Arden en-
tered his home on the West Side, he
found that the infant of few months
that he had left was full grown girl
She did not know him. although the
wife with two husbands recognized the
man she had welded nearly score o.
years ago.
Antochowski left home In August
1899, on river excursion. He had
not been working regularly and when
he did not return with the steamboat
it was presumed that he had secured
employment at La Crosse, the destina
ton of the steamer. The hours length
ened and days and months passed, un
til finally after number of years.
1t was believed that he had been
drowned. The mysterious disappear
ance gradually was forgotten and Mrs
Catherine Antochowski, with two
daughters, brought up her family, edu
eating them through money she
earned.
The return of the first husband was
unannounced. He has been travelling
over the country, working at odd jobs
during his absence, it is said.
