 Plains Victim.

White Plains, N. Y. March B. Coroner Edward F, Fitzgerald yester- day afternoon held Mike and Joe Benedetto of White Plains and Tony Martilitti of Port Chester to await the action of the grand jury on the mur- der of Paolo Litti. otherwise known as Paolo Santa, who was found stab- bed to death on the Mount Calvary Cemetery road on Sunday morning.
 Sheriff George J. Werner announced that through the efforts of Detective Frank Cherico it had been esta ablished that Litti was the victim of secret Calabrian society. He was killed for some crime he committed in Italy, and it is thought revenge was ordered upon him in this country, It was only last June that the murdered man re- turned to this country It is said that he broke an oath of the secret society. Over his right eye was a deep crescent shaped cut, the mark of the Calabrian society. The pocketbook and dress suit case owned by the dead man were found in the home of Joe Benedetto.
 It is believed two of the s1ayers held Litti while the third man wied ed double-edged knife used only by Calabrian bandits.

WONDERS IN GRAIN OF SAND


A handful Of sand, trickling through
the fingers in hard, dry grains, appears
TO the naked eye merely as a collec-
tlOn OF tiny stones. Many of the grains
are little stones ground by the action
of the tides from the faces Of the great
cliffs against which the waves dash;
but others are very different affairs.
II you spread pinch Of sand on
piece of white paper, and look at it
through a magnifying glass, you will
have a surprise. Many of the grains
are shells consisting Of turns and spl-
rails as perfect as those Of the whelk
or the periwinkle, but so tiny that
without the aid Of a glass the eye
cannot see them.
They are made by class of minute
creatures that swarm In the waters,
and as the animals die their shells
are washed up by the tide to form
sand. In course OF time they become
welded into masses of stone, and as
the centuries pass by they form great
rocks. Many Of our mlghtiest noun
tain ranges are made Of nothing but
the shells of these tiny creatures.

Many Of the medieval coins were

only more elaborate, but in much high.
er relief. Some of the German coins
of the Seventeenth century were An
inches in diameter and contained one
pound of silver. Coins such as these
of the l0-thaler size are to be found in
many collections, and the coins of the
.. 3, 5-thaler or dollar size are in many
cases not especially rare and can be
obtained in almost mint state for rea-
sonable prices. In many cases silver
cups and plates were cut up in sec
tlons about equal in weight to $3.50
pieces and these rude planchets were
counter-stamped in the corners and
center with punch marks Of crests and
coats of arms. There was a common
practice of clipping" coins OF any ir-
regular shape, and this practice was
punishable with death.

REEFS LIKE FLOWER GARDENS
Variety Of Color Who're Living cerals
Abound Described 40 Wonderful
and Beautiful.

The traveller among the Islands OF
the tropics finds few more curiOusly
interesting sights than the coral reefs
that surround them, remarks a writer
in the Washington Star The variety
Of color exhibited by the reefs where
the living coral abounds is as wonder
full and beautiful as that In a flower
garden. But the eye Of the natural
list detects beauties apd points Of in
terest that entirely escape the eye of
the casual or careless visitor; for
every circling reef is the home of
vast variety of living forms, which ex-
hiblt some OF natures most cunning
handiwork in the adaptation Of means
to ends.
Among these curious inhabitants OF
the tropical waters Is, for instance,
the caput medusae, an animal that
bears a remarkable resemblance to a
plant, and whose remote ancestors In
the most ancient oceans Of the earth
contrived to prolong the existence OF
their kind by developing a means Of
keeping the water around them COM
paratively pure. This is only one OF
a multitude of wonderful little AMI
mails to be found in such places.

The Finished Job.

When a woman sees a man, her first
impulse Is to make a fool of him.
After she has made fool of him, she
drops him, because no woman wants a
fool II she can't make a fool Of him,
then she hates him because no woman
wants stubborn man. But II he
turns the tables and makes her want
him until her heart breaks, worship
him until her very soul weeps with
hunger, then she loves him truly for
who would not adore an unimpassloned
brute?
Truly, that is the finished job OF the

Football Championship
Of China Won by Marines

PEKING. Jan. la.--tBy maiD-
The football championship OF China
has now been won by q team rep
resenting the American marines
stationed In Peking as the legation
guard. The title was won. after
the championship OF North China
had been clinched by a defeat OF
the Fifteenth infantry and by a
game with the team from the
American club OF Shanghai. which
went 10 the credit OF Peking by the
score OF 35 to 10. The final game
was played In shanghai before a
crowd OF about 1000 spectators
on the 3lst OF December.
The marine team had practiced
for about two months under the
coaching Of Captain Tenney. a for
mer halfback ut Brown University.
and two former Princeton players.
The brand OF football which they
put up would have compared favor
ably with that OF many college
teams In America. and throughout
the short season OF three games
the marine squad was relieved OF
all other duties. The trip to Shang-
hal was taken by seventeen men
and the squad was accompanied by
Colonel Karmany. commander Of
the legation guard In Peking as
well rs by Coach Tenney and the
marine athletic officer.
