have stored away fountain pens, well
recommended, as evidence in order to
get back the price from the man who
sold the pens with the promise that
he would give back the coin. 1t

with few variations. The fakir began

Having given away a number he ask
ed those who had them and others
who wanted them to put up a dollar"
TO show that they had confidence in
humanity as all good men should have
Something like twenty-five dug up the
coin. The vendor then started to give
back the coin, but just at that juno
ture the parade came along and he
had to get out of the way. In some
way he got lost in the crowd and the
pen buyers are still waiting for the
change. They hope that he will re-
turn with the show next year and re-
fund.

A New Road Sprinkler, designed for
the public highways, has been tried
out by the county commissioners. 1t
is auto propelled, the tank holds a
round thousand gallons and it is ar
ranged to pull a road drag and thus
fill up holes with the moistened dust.
1t is also provided with a suction
hose and a centrifugal pump, operated
by the engine. The hose can be drop
ped into any ditch carrying six inches
of water and the tank filled in three
minutes. When filled the tank and
carriage weigh seven and three-quar-
tiers tons; but at hat the rig ambles
along three or four miles an hour and
by working sixteen hours out of the
twenty-four is expected to care for
about thirty miles of road. The work
of the machine was tho't to commend
itself at the first trials; and it seem
ed that the city might find therein a
saving over the use of the horse
drawn s~prinklers.

SKELETON MAY SOLVE
FOUR.YEAR MYSTERY
Police Believe Finding of Auto
May Explain Lyman's
Disappearance

The recovery of skeleton in the
Delaware River II identified may clear
up the strange disappearance Of J.
Walter Lyman. the automobile tire
dealer who disappeared more than four
years ago. The discovery and raising
Of an automobile which has been denti-
fed as Lyman's yesterday recalled to the
municipal authorities today that on
November a skeleton was raised from
the Delaware near Fitler street wharf,
not far from the spot where the auto
mobile was found, This skeleton was
buried in potter's field. At the tims
of its discovery anatomical experts had
estimated that 1t was the skeleton of a
man about thirty-fve to forty years
old. which would be the age OF Lyman.
The Coroner's men are going to dig
up this skeleton and try to have the
family of Lyman identify the body by
the teeth. Friends of Lyman in this
city will also be asked TO try and recog-
nize the teeth of the skeleton.
The authorities are now trying TO
get in touch with Lyman's wife. who
lives in Akron. o.

NaturaliZed German Accused
of Spelling Shells-Others
Under Suspicion

William LetkousN, n naturalized Ger
man, employed at the Frankford Ar
sCnal, was today held in $4,000 bail for
court by United states Commissioner
Long in the Federal Building, accused
of running shells in the process of manu-
facture for the Government
Special Agent Gabarno, OF the Depart
mcnt 'of Justice, said that several other
men employed at the Arsenal are under
suspicion, and that Letkouskl had in
dicated that others We're doing the same
thing, but refused to name them.
1t is the belief OF the Government
agents that Letkouski's case may have
bearing on the recent investigation
which followed the discovery that many
of the shells in the hands of General
Pershing's army were found to be de-
fcctiNe.
Letkouski. according to the Federal
agents worked on piece work and took
tho wrappings from the fuses, known
as Innings" which rendered the shells
useless.
