Old City Hall Fountain
To Find Home i'm Bronx
Commissioner Hennessy Will
Place Antique Watering De.
vice in CrOtOna Park

The grotesque old fountain in City
Hall Park which has shocked the artis-
tic sense Of the Municipal Art Commits
sion for years is soon TO be removed
and loaded on the Bronx. The Board
Of Aldermen yesterday, granted the
application Of Joseph P. Hennessy,
Park Commissioner of the Bronx, for
an appropriation Of S3,54S to remove
the fountain to Crotona Park. Com
missioner Hennessy explained that
while the fountain might not be a
beauty il would do until the Bronx
was able to get better one.
Alderman Robert S. Allyn, of Brook
lyn, was the only one voting against
the application. He said that he re-
fused to sanction the expenditure of
any OF the city's money to remove the
he would gladly vote to appropriate
money to cast it into the river.
Vice. Chairman William ?. Kenneally
and Alderman John +. McCourt offered
resolution calling upon the Board of
Chlid Welfare to fix the maximum
pension fer widowed mothers at SIS a
month instead of Sl3, the amount now
paid. The resolution declared that the
city was paying SIS for the care of
children in the city institutions, while
no increase had been granted to widows
to keep their children at home. Imme-
date consideration of the resolution
was requested, but on the objection of
alderman Bruce NJ. Falconer, who
stated that he did not think the Alder
men should commit themselves to such
resolution until the total amount re-
CURED could be ascertained, the resolu-
uon was made 4 general order for the

8 GOSHEN. N. Y, Feb. 24.-The morn

creeping down in the coulees of Orange
County to-day when w. M. Leonard,
the hard bitten Sheriff, and Ed Halli-
han and Sidney Johnson. his fearless
deputies. flung themselves into their
Ford and disappeared through the mes
ouite and chapparal on the trail of cat
tie rustlers.
"Bang! Bang! Crash!"
That was the Ford drawing up in
front Of Shaw's Hardware Emporium
a, Walden. Out of the machine piled
the fearless men and surrounded, as
pearly and as much as possible, Charles
c. Blankenship. one-time Deputy Mar
shall of Lodge Green, Mont, and visi-
tor at the Shaw home.
"Don't reach for your hardware" )"
warned Sheriff Leonard in the accept
ed Western fashion. "I'm powerful

And they do say that when they
searched that nice Mr.. Blankenship
they found two big pistols in his pock-
cts. Dearie me, what is Orange County
a-comin TO.
While the norther howled about his
cabin last night fearless Sheriff Leon
ard told Of his capture with the simple
modesty of the wide spaces, where
men are brave and women fresh and
sweet.
Gene Van Wart, special agent of the
Montana Stockmens Association, wrote
to the Sheriff saying that Blankenship
was wanted for running off 165 cattle
from the Grow Indian Reservation, in
Big Horn County, on November 26,
1919.
Van Wart SAID that Blankenship was
visiting Shaw, having met him through
Shaw's daughter, who is schoolm am
at Lodge Grass.
Blankenship passed last night in the
COUNT jail at Goshen, and will be held
for eXtradtion.

The use Of asphyxiating gas is q
very ancient device. Smoking out the.
enemy was one Of the regular maneu-
vers of war in antiquity, says the Sci
entiflc Monthly. Polybius relates that
at the siege Of Ambracia by the Ro-
mans under Marius Fulvius Nobilor
(B. c. 1897 the Aetolians filled, jars
with feathers, which they set on fire.
blowing the smoke with bellows into
the faces of the Romans in the cOun-
termines. At the great naval battle
fought In the waters of Ponza between
Alfonso Of Aragon and Genoa in 14S5
the Genoese carried vessels filled with
quicklime and redhot cinders, the
smoke from which was blown by the
wind against the enemy, Leonardo da
Vinci, who among his many other ac-
complishments was a notable military
engineer. suggested the use Of poison
GUS powders, such as yellow arsenic
and .verdigris, to be thrown from the
topmasts Of ships so as to choke the
enemy. This formed part of the
war instructions given by Leonardo to
the republic of Venice In 1899, when
the Turks had passed the Isonzo and
threatened st. Marks.

His face always wore the same ex-
pression-the look Of the stoker who
comes to the deck for breath Of fresh
air. His business was, once every
second. to give certain machine q
twist in order that q piece Of wire might
bend into a circle, He had done this
sort of thing SO long that two fingers
had acquired a. peculiar hardened
curvature. One shoulder was lower
than the other. He knew no other BUSH
ness.
\ It seems that the man had had an
unusual boyhoed. While others were
at their sport. his hours were spent in
passionate reverie. The literature of
romantlc chivalry. the story Of fol-
lowers of the Cross, the fine heroism Of
soul-starving deeds for others claimed
him and made him tremulous with as
piration. He knew Of nothing larger,
more captivating for him than life
eked out In some remote field of self
sacrifice for the redemption of the hui
man race. And to this he pledged him
self. But then Ills father died. Ruin
was the specter at the funeral feast.
An unnamed Nemesis pursued him, try
as he might to keep faith with himself
and the call Of mortal hunger. Self
sacrifice.
