Alexandria during the first half Of the
last century, failed to throw the
slightest light upon the mystery.
The facts In the case are few, but.
such as they are, they are supported
by the unassailable evidence of num-
to the brief public appearance Of the
female stranger" The brig Four
Sons docked at Alexandria on July
25, 1885, en- route from Halifax to the
West Indies. The Virginia city was
not port Of call on the regular route.
but the captain stated that one Of his
passengers had been taken dangerously
i'll and that her husband had demand
ed that she be put ashore at Alexan-
drfa, where boat was lowered, and q
man and woman, the latter apparently
very Ill, were taken ashore.
Despite the heat Of midsummer, the
woman wore a heavy black veil, and
her husband secured the best suite In
the Inn Of the Bunch Of Grapes, as
we'll as the services Of well-known
physician whom he engaged only after
pledging him to strictest secrecy. Even
in the presence Of the doctor, however,
the woman's face was kept veiled, and
the husband steadfastly refused to
hire a nurse, saying that he was en-
tirely capable Of handling the case
and that he was able to do anything
that a nurse could do.
As the weeks of scorching hot
weather progressed, however, the man
began to wilt under the constant strain
Of watching beside the bed, and finally
agreed to permit two Of the guests
in the Inn to help him-but only after
they had taken an oath that nothing
they might learn would ever be
divulged, an oath which was kept az
sacred trust.
During the ten weeks which fol-
lowed the woman's arrival in Alexan-
dria, she grew steadily worse, and at
last, at dawn on October 4, her hus-
band announced that she had died.
Then, for fear that someone might see
the face which he had kept hidden
from the world, he himself prepared
the body for burial, sealed the lid Of
the coffin, and. after attending the
funeral and ordering the headstone
with the strange inscription, disap-
peared.
On October 4 Of the following year,
Alexandria was surprised at the sud-
den and unheralded return Of the hus-
band, who remained In the city only
long enough to place flowers on the
grave Of the female stranger" and to
see that the plot In the cemetery was
well taken care OF. Once year, for
twelve years, he returned. Then his
visits ceased and the grave was neg
lected until, a number Of years later.
a distinguished elderly man and wom-
an came and ordered the monument
to be replaced by another and more
costly headstone bearing the same In
scription. with the addition Of the
verse:
How loved. how honored once. avails
thee not,
To whom related. or by whom begot:
A heap of dust alone remains Of thee,
IT'S all thou art. and all the proud shall
be.

them the secret Of the identity Of the
woman whose history and personality
is forever hidden from the world be-

Right Handler May Pitch
For Aquehongas In Game
Here Sunday Afternoon

II is understood that Charley
Hilker of the A~quehonga baseball
team of Tottenville will send a right
handler to the mound against the
Perth Amboys on the Raritan Cop
per Works field Sunday afternoon
in an effort to even the Interstate
series between these two teams.
In the three games played to date
two of which have been won by
Amboy. a southpaw and former
pitcher of the All C%ollegians of New
York, did the pitching. Dunn had
an easy time beating the Amboys in
the first game, but lost the second
game as a result of a ninth inning
rally and was completely outclassed
in the third game.
T~ottenville fans have requested
that another pitcher be secured so
that the A%quehongas may have an
other chance to beat the Amboys.
If the Aquehongas win this game,
a fifth and deciding game will be
necessary and this game will be de-
cided On the gorunds chosen by the
toss of a coin.
Hilker will not be satisfied by a
change OF pitcher, but he Is also

Y BELMONT TO FIGHT COLLE77/ HERE FOR POLICE
80 Rounds of Boxing
Event Here On Oct. IS

Jack Durham, chairman of the
committee preparing for the first
boxing show of the Police Mutual
Aid Society to be staged in the audi
torium on Thursday night, October
10, this morning announced his
complete boxing program for this
event.
In the eight round main event. Joe
Colletti, the well known fyweight
battler of Poughkeepsie, will meet
Ray Belmont OF Philadelphia. Frank
Murray of Philadelphia, was origin
ally scheduled to battle Colletti and
signed a contract to meet Ed Poul-
sens battler, but later decided that
he did not care to meet a southpaw
fighter. 1t is probable that the case
of Murray will be referred to the
boxing commission.
Colletti registered a knockout in
the second round of each of his last
four fights. the last of which was
staged under the auspices of the
Roosevelt Boxing Club in Coughiin's
auditorium, Roosevelt. Belmont IS
said to have equally as good a rec
ord as Murray, who was originally
scheduled to fight Colletti and local
fans are well aware of the fact that
Murray could stay the limit with the
hard hitting ~southpaw.
In the semi-final contest, Johnny
Mcfarland of Elizabeth, who defeat
ed Johnny Carroll and also fought
a draw with the Chrome boxer, has
been matched to meet Mickey De-
vers of Allentown. This also is an

PRACTICALLY CHOSEN
BY COACH WADDELL

Coach Waddell again reiterated his
previous statement that the Grim
son and White representative team
will make up in speed and spirit
what il lacks in weight. All of the
candidates have a confident spirit
at the present time and the coach
is hopeful that same will be contin-
ued throughout the season.
From present indications it ap-
pears as If the local team will play
its first game on Friday afternoon,
October IS, against the Metuchen
High School eleven.
The local manager has Railway
High School booked for October 2S
and Freehold for November 10.
Games are pending with New Bruins

No games will be played at home

players will he taken out, has not
been made known.
While Manager Hilker has made
known his efforts to secure the SER
vices of at least four good men.
Messrs. Applegate and Poulsen OF
the local team. have not announced
any changes in their lineup. Ru-
mors about the city are to the effect
that Amboys also will be strength
ened.
If the Amboys win the came Sun
day, the series will be decided, three
to one in favor of Amboy and the
Amboy records of previous years
will be lived up to. Last season it
was impossible for the Amboys and
Tottenville teams to arrange a Sc

to travel On Sunday.
1t is PROBABLE hat Eppe, an ofh-
