John" said the chief Of the detective
bureau to which was attached, here
Is q very singular case have letter
from q party In London asking me to
discover a man who is hiding not be-
cause he is criminal, but because he
ia wanted to enter upon the possession
of fine estate"
1t was indeed a singular case. Ralph
Thornton, a son Of John Thornton, n
wealthy manufacturer of Birmingham.
England, had come to America In
flight from Justice. or. rather, injustice.
A crime had been committed which
had been fixed on him. The cfrcum-
stantial evidence against him was 30
strong that bis attorney advised him to
vanish. He accepted the advice and,
though absolutely innocent, sailed In
disguise for New York and never made
known to any one in England into
what part Of the country he had drift
ed. The real criminal had been tried
| and convicted for another offense and
! had confessed that he was the guilty
one In the crime Of which Ralph Thorn
ton had been accused. Ralph's father
had meanwhile died and left him all
his property.
The trouble In finding Thornton was
that he would naturally suppose that
any one looking for him would arrest
him. Therefore It was necessary to
approach him not by ordinary detective
methods. I was furnished with de
scription Of his person and Informed
that he was a university graduate and
a scholarly man. was also given the
letter from London stating that he had
been exonerated.

that he had gone to Colorado and en-

Harrison gave a lecture before the
Advertising Club in ST. Louis, Mo-,
in the course Of which he said that
any man reading eight books, which
he named, could become educated
in six months, by spending half an
hour each day at his reading This
list was published in the daily
press, with the result of causing an
inquiry for them at the public Ii
brary so great that there were not
nearly enough copies of the books
to satisfy public demand, and DR..
A. L. Bostwick, the librarian,
found it necessary to make arrange
ments to add some copies Of these
books. The books named by Rabbi
Harrison were Camille Flamarion's
"Wonders of the Heavens" Gieke's

"Primitive Man." Spencer's "Study

TROUBLE
FOR .TEUTONs
German Chancellor Will Weather
0ucoming Storm in The
Reichstag.

Berlin, Oct. 3.-Supported by
General Won Hindenberg and a
majority of the German populace,
Chancellor Bethman. Holwegg is
expected to weather the storm
which will probably breed in the
Reichstag when it reconvened on
September 2S.
A campaign for the renewal
Germany's submarine warfare
will be INDUCED in by the reich
stag members who are critics of
the chancellor. Germany's SUBJ
marine advocates have never for
given their chancellor for yield
ing to the demands of United
States in respect to how the en-
pire's submarines are handled,
and it is expected that they will
make trouble in the legislative
halls. Some of them are already
proposing a coalition of the min
istry.
The attention of the entire
country is resting on the meet
ing of three hundred socialists
here today preceding the open
ing of the reichstag. They are
supporting Chancellor Bethman.
Holweg.
From these reasons it is ex-
pected that the forthcoming con-
vening of the reichstag will be
one of the most important ever
held, as well as one fraught with
gravest possibilities. Althogf
subject to sharpest criticism by
his opponents, the German chan.
cellor still retains a strength Sc.
rious enough, it is believed, tc
carry his points of argument ir
helping to shape the destinies OF
the German empire in its severe
hour of trial.
