scene of most deadly war, man, or
men rather, against wounded and
enraged brute. To escape was impos-
sible. To fight was. to encounter a
foe whose fork like claws and snap
ping incisive teeth told only too plain
ly how terribly was the enemy. Mr.
Shute grasped the poker while Mr.
Jenkins laid hold upon coupling link
and others seized such weapons as
could most conveniently be found.
We stood our ground with an arm
chair, the best weapon we could reach.
Mr.. Foote was the only one having
about his person a revolver, and with
this he did mighty work sending four
shots in quick succession into the
yarmouth" as he ragged like an i'm
prisoned tiger. Jenkins dealt the
beast a fearful blow with the iron
link, and Mr.. Shute, with his clothing
torn, and arms badly Scratched, while
the enraged fend was passing from
the rear to the foremost part of the
car, dealt him a fearful blow across
the back with the poker nearly doub-
ling it to a right angle. This settled
the brute, and a last discharge from
Mr.. Foote'S revolver closed his "brief
but brilliant career" forever All
were fearfully frightened as well they
might be, locked up in narrow box
car with an untamed wild cat, but
fortunately none experienced severe
wounds. The whole scene occupied
probably less than minute, but it
seemed an hour. The yarmouth"
measured four feet and seven inches,
and was of the Lynx family.

the action brought against him by Mr..
Chas. Kruger of Dexterville, for
dashing dipper of water into Kru-

by the Portage County Circuit Court,
at Stevens Point, a verdict having
been awarded the plaintiff for dam

which will increase the amount to
about $1,000. George mistook himself
for a priest and so baptised Kruger,
or he mistook Kruger for a sinner and
so sprinkled him, either the one or the
other, it matters not which. It costs
$500 to play minister at Dexterville

As you will Judge from these pictures. am
particularly interested in headdresses. When
ever l create an evening gown instinctively
design an ornament for the couture which
should be worn with that gown. And here my
sense Of the harmonies is Of great value. Never.
for instance. would design Greek ilet to be
worn with an Egyptian gown. Never should
an Oriental headdress. all Jewels and hammered
metals, be worn with an ingenue frock. And
never should sumptuous evening costume be
topped by q simple bandeau, such as the sweet
young debutante might wear with a simple
tulle dress. The tiara, which Is really the mod.
ern hair ornament. should only be worn with
one Of the expensive ultra modern gowns OF the
moment. Thus will harmony reign.

Embassy at Washington.

Washington, JAM 16.-Accounts of
the German embassy, it became known
tonight, prove. in the opinion of en-
bassy officials, that if Captain Franz
Won SPapen. SFecaIled military attache,
paid any money by check to Werner
Horn, it was not until after Horn
had been arrested, charged with blow
ing up the Canadian Pacific railroad
at Vanceboro, Maine
London dispatches have stated that
stubs in Won Papen's checkboolx, taken
from him by the British authorities
at Falmouth, showed a check for $700
drawn to Horns credit the day after
the attache had received $4,000 from
the German embassy According to
the embassy accounts, it was said.
$4,000 was paid to Won Papen within
a few days after the explosion at
Vanceboro to defray expenses in con-
nection with the defense of Horn, a
German citizen.
1t was also intimated at the em-
bassy that if Won Papen had paid
money to Hans Adam Won WediIl, in
dicted in New York for an alleged
passport fraud, it had been to assist
him legally. Won Wedill fed after
being indicted.
Officials of the state department
have indicated that it was important
to know whether the payment to
Horn was made before or after the
explosion.

Wilson has begun work to put into
operation the plan he outlined In his
last message to congress for preparing
the nations manufacturing, railroad

DEATH COMES TO
MICHAEL KENEALY
Prominent Connecticut Lawyer and
Politician Dies at Stamford Hospital
This Morning.

Stamford Conn, Jan. 17-Michael
Kenealy. well known lawyer and one
of the most prominent men in the state
politically, died at the Stamford hos
pital at 2.15 O'Clock this (Monday)
morning after an illness of several
weeks.
Michael Kenealy was born in Stam-
ford, the son of John Kenealy, a grocer
who had come from Waterford, Ire
land, and had married Johanna F'itz-
gerald. The son, Michael, was born
July 8, 1855, and there were two other
children. James, now dead. and Mrs.
Mary O'Brien. As boy Michael was
studious and progressive. He was a
clerk also for his father until 1873,
when he entered the law officer of
Olmstead & Scofield, the head of which
was states attorney of Fairfield coun-
ty. Michael Kenealy, the student, be-
came a member of the bar in 1876, and
three years later, when the firm of
Olmstead & Scofeld was dissolved, he
became associated with Mr. Scofeld,
continuing in that relation until 1893.
Mr.. Kenealy then established his own
Office and later took in John T. Keat-
ing. who became his partner and con-
tinued SO until 1913. In September,

hotels, newspaper offices and teIe-
graph and telephone exchanges, were
destroyed The telegraph Officials
worked bravely in sending messages
until their last lines were broken.
The firemen endeayored to circum-
scribe the area OF the fire, but their
task was hopeless. In order to pre-
vent further spread of the confiaEra
ton, they finally blew up buildings on
the outer edge of the path of the
flames. Late reports say that no lives
were lost.
Bergen is one Of the Oldest and most
picturesque towns in Norway and It
ranks first of the Norwegian ship
owning centers. It is well built on
hilly peninsula and is situated at the
end of deep bay of the Atlantic 19O
miles northwest of Christians.
Through Bergen passes a large part OF
the foreign trade of Norway. Fleets
of vessels bring the produce of the
northern fisheries to the seaport.
Bergen has repeatedly suffered from
fire. as in 1902 and 1856, and the broad
open spaces which interrupt the streets
are intended as a safeguard against
the spread Of flames.

NO SETTLEMENT OF
LusITANIA CASE YET.
German Foreign Office Believes the
Announeement Was Premature.

Berlin, via London, Jan. 16.-The
German foreign ONCE believes that any
announcement regarding final settle-
ment Of the Lusitania case is slightly
premature No report to this effect
has yet been received from Count Won
Bernstorff, the German ambassador at
Washington. On the contrary. 1t is
inferred here that negotiations are
still pending, but not the slightest
doubt is expressed that a settlement
will be reached in the immediate fu-
ture.
The Mediterranean problem is re-
garded here as absolutely settled, the
German government, as previously
stated, considering that their sub
marines in this and other areas which
have not been proclaimed as war zones
are operating under all the recognized
rules of Cruiser warfare These
submarines differ from regular cruisers
only in that they are travelling under
water instead of upon the surface
When the distinction between this
Cruiser warfare and the reprisal OPP
erations in the war zone around the
British Isles is comprehended in Ger
many, it is thought, this settlement Of
the Mediterranean problem will be ac-
cepted and proclaimed by all parties.

TO URGE AERIAL MAIL ROUTES
THROUGHOUT UNITED STATES.
One Proposed Is from Sag Harbor to
New London.

New York, Jan. 16.-Dr Alexander
Graham Bell, it was announced to-
night, has appealed to the Aero club
Of America to urge upon congress the
establishment of aerial mall routes
wherever possible throughout the
United States. He argues that this
step would bring into daily use large
numbers of aeroplanes which would
form a valuable reserve of trained av-
iators in case of war.
At the next meeting the governors
of the Aero club will consider plans
for establishing the first 43 aeroplane
mail routes suggested by the postof-
fee department. One of the routes
proposed where an aeroplane could
carry mail in less time than that re-
quired by other methods is from Sag
Harbor to New London, Conn.

The Turks are now being attacked

This church has been the scene of
half a dozen riots in as many weeks,
one faction objecting to the authority
exercised by Bishop NJ. J. Hoban, of
the Catholic diocese of Scranton, in
naming a priest to take charge of the
affairs of the church, and the other
supporting him. Every time the new
ly appointed priest has sought to hold
services he has been prevented from
entering the church by the opposing
faction, but today arrangements had
been made to say mass under the pro-
lection of the sheriff, who called on
the state police.

A detail of a dozen troopers was
on hand when services were to have
opened, but SO forbidding was the at
