An EARLY FROST on THE PUMP.
KIN

The coolest summer since 1879,
when the corn ears were frozen on
the stalks" is predicted bv William
Altman. a Pennsylvania hunter and
trapper, who has local reputation as
4 weather sage. His prophecy is that
beginning April Is and continuing
until the last of August there will be
old winds, rain, snow and sleet."
While no one desires such sum
mer. a moderately cool season would
be welcomed by the stay-at-homes.
McteOrologsts will not scott at the
Pennsylvania oracle. A summer not
too hot is not unlikely, for the rea-
son that in 1921 there was, as Mr..
James III. Scarr of the local Weather
Bureau has said, an accumulated en-
cess Of 1916 degrees" and in the first
quarter of 1922 the monthly mean con-
tinued to be higher than the normal,
except in January. Speaking of 1921.

THE .STEALERS" ARE W.
The New York herald., 1922-03-19

tor Of st. Thomass Episcopal Church,
Newark, regarded the parchment creden-
tials, supposed to be signed by the wholly
imaginative Bishop OF diocese that does
not exist. as genuine. Readily he gave the
sanctimonious Danoo permission to speak
from the pulpit and make an appeal for his
suffering compatriots.
So on one Sunday in the latter part of
January, 1921, Mr.. Danoo came in clerical
garb and vestments. But in the front row
were two fellow Assyrians Israel Joseph
and Saul David. When about to enter the
pulpit Danoo recognized these two and
hastily retreated. Joseph and David ac-
cordfng to their story, followed him to the
Market street resort and then, in true AS
syrian fashion, kidnapped him and carried
him off to their own rooms, where he
offered them 800 for his release.
Letters from clergymen in New York
Pennsylvania, New Jersey and the New
England States then told the story of
Danoo's peregrinations. These are in the
possession OF the Newark police, the i'm
migration authorities and the officials of
the Episcopal Church. They show to what
extent he was able to impose himself on
others In the CURSE Of an agent of charity
without interruption they cover the period
between his sensational appearance in St.
Thomas's Church. Newark, and his arrest
two weeks ago in Moorestown, N. j., on
charge of obtaining money under false
pretenses.
The letters Danoo won from prominent
clergymen present proof of his aptness as
a student OF psychology. If any further
Ia needed there is his partial list of victims
as II was found in a Philadelphia rooming
house. The list of clergymen who testified
TO his worthiness includes the names of
some OF the most prominent New York
divines. True, they spoke principally for
the cause he was supposed to represent.
But in many cases. on the letterhead of
their church. they set down that they had
examined his credentials and found thsm

left. Instructions were given, however,
that should he appear in the building again
Mr.. Burgess was to be instantly notified.
Last December he came seeking Bishop
Gailor, president OF the Domestic and For.
eign Missionary Society Of the church. Mr..
Burgess thereupon accused and received
the mans admission that he was an i'm.
postor.
