EMMA P. BRADLEY
 MEMORIAL HOSPITAL

romance of the early development of the telephone. Mir. Bradley, a son of ex-Chief Justice Charles E. Bradley of the Rhode Island Supreme Court, was born in Providence October 1, lS46.
 He was educated at Frieburg. Ger many, taking a special course in the study of metal,urgy and engineering. His first important business connect ion was with a mining development .n Colorado, which, however. did not prove successful. Returning to Provi- denee. he became interested in the researches of Prof. Alexander Gra- ham Bell. who was then trying to perfect the telephone.
 When the instrument was meehan- ically perfected there still remained what was perhaps the greater task of making it a practical utility through the enlistment of capital in it.
 Having talent for such crgaaiza- ton, Mir. Bradley was induced to inc crest capital in it's development. He was successful iH organizing the New England Telephone Company. and later in New York City formed the National Bell Telephone Company. The new enterprise also received financial encouragement from the ate Rowland c. Hazard of Southern Rhode Island fame
 Soon the newly developed tele- phone. however, was the subject of a financial war" between two rival companies, and Providence was a center of this "war" One day it was announced, however, that a merger had taken place, the Bell company absorbing it's rival.
 Immediately the Bell stock. which had started at $l and slowly worked tip to $50 a share, vaulted Co $500. Mir. Bradley's immediate profits through this exploit were said to have been $i,000.000
 Children the First Choice
 Later Mir Bradley took hold of the Mergenthaler Linotype Company, then a struggling concern and sue ceeded in interesting noted capital ists in 1t. Tn this venture he was said to have amassed another million.
 Mir. Bradley died in Washington in 1906, and his will was probated in the town of Pomfret, Ccnn., where he had a home. The publication of his will revealed the misfortune of his home life. the invaidism of his daughter, Emma Pendleton Bradley. through the obscure nervous disorder.
 The wifi also revealed the purpose of Mr. Bradley and his wife to be- queath their fortune Co found a hos pital for those suffering from such diseases. as memorial to her. 4 fund of S250,000 was set aside for the'car of the daughter, and the full use of the remainder of the property was to Mrs. Bradley as long as she lived
 The new hospital is to be absolute ly non-seetarian. The wishes of Mr. and Mrs. Bradley were also expressed in the words that "in the reception of patients. preference be given to children over adults, and that the poor and needy be taken care of as far as possible and that no discri- imitation be made because of creed, sect CT social position"

 i The Providence Journal" prints ] the following story regarding the gift and the family of the donor: new hospital, totally unlike any thing that has been seen either in this country CT abroad, is being erected in East Providence.
 This is to be known as the Emma Pendleton Bradley Home, the gift to public charity of the late Mir. and Mrs. George Lothrop Bradley. who by their wills gave their property for its establishment. Mir. Bradley died in 1906, and his wife in 1919. The hos pital is in memory of their only daughter. Emma Pendleton Bradley, who died at an early age from a nervous disease.
 Ground has already been broken for the building of the house, which is Go be situated on the East Provi- dence shore near the Squantum club house and in one of the most pie turesque and healthful spots to be found on the upper bay.
 Mir. Bradley died in 1906, leaving a will in which it was provided that after his death and that of his wife his property should be used for the establishment of home. The daugh- ter of the Bradleys, Miss Emma Pendleton Bradley, was then living, although she was an invalid as re- suit of the nervous disorder.
 Overlooking the Bay
 The Bradley home at that time was a pa atial residence on Eaton st, sur rounded by extensive grounds border ing on Admiral st. and River av. 1t was his intention that the home and grounds should eventually serve for the purpose of the hospital, although authority was given that the trustees of the hospital when an organization FHNuiN ht AhhHAths hlfHHt Tftt Aht fANt erty if it seemed best to do so. Mrs. Bradley survived her husband until 1919 and in the interim since the death of Mrs. Bradley, Miss Bradley had passed away.
 The Rhode Island Hospital Trust Company was made trustee of the wills, and was designated to appoint a board of trustees for the establish ment of the hospital
 IL was decided that the mansion and grounds on Eaton st. were not the best location fer such a hospital as was contemplated.
 After exhaustive investigations the board decided upon the East Providence site as the most desirable for the hospital.
 The site selected is about 300 feet from the main highway, and upon an e ovation overlooking the bay. It is one of the few remaining places along the entire water front where such advantages may be found.
 The grounds comprise in all about 35 acres. About 10 acres in the inn mediate vicinity of the main building will be terraced and submitted to landscape treatment, and the remain der will be left in it's natural state.
 The fortune of Mir. Bradley through whose munifience the hospi- tai is being established, recalls the

BY the Associated Press
MEXICO CITY, October 12-Pascual
Ortiz Rubio, candidate of the National
Revolutionary party for the Mexican
presidency, today in an interview said
he would continue distribution of land
in accordance with the present govern
ment's agrarian policy if he is electd to
succeed President Portes Gil Novem-

He said, however, he would make
every effort to indemnify proprietors of
lands which it would be necessary to
take for this purpose, declaring
foreign capital will be given the great
est possible protection by law and with
out detriment to the rights of the
workers.
He added he believed in intensifying
the cooperative movement or the crea-
ton of workers cooperative organiza-
tons to manage business as method
of realizing Mexican economic indie
pendence. He refused to give his opin-
ion Of the national labor project now
before Congress.
He said Il shall follow the law

Note the brown hardened spot on
the edge" He went to the bench
and picked up a tiny bit of rubber
insulation that lay on the jig be-
meath one OF the clips.
Here is a similar spot on this
piece Of rubber and here are more
of them on these other strips" He
pointed to the pile of insulation
fragments which lay at the base of
the glue pot. That's glue which
you or some one else spilled from
the pot shortly before you made
your demonstration last night, for
it must have been fresh and sticky
then"
Nov here is what I think hap
pened," he went on: Remember
when Enderby, after examining the
cylinder, placed it on the bench
right on top of that heap of rub
Der scraps and you picked it up and
replaced it in the clips?"
WILDER and Smedley both nodded.
"I'm going to repeat the same
movements and see if my theory
doesn't work out" Sheridan said.
He scraped the hardened glue from
the edge Of the cylinder and with
a brush replaced it with fresh glue
from the pot.
He picked up a piece of the insu-
lation of about the same size as the
one he had found near the clip and
pressed it on the cylinder against
the fresh glue. He then carefully
inserted the cylinder in the clips.
That's what occurred" he said.
when Enderby laid down the CYL
inder it fell on one of those glue
smeared strips, which adhered to
it when you returned it to the jig"
81 see!" exclaimed WILDER eX-
citeQly, "the cylinder was insulated
from the clip on that side and no
current could pass through"
Exactly" Sheridan replied, "Now
pull the switch and see if we are
not right"
With the current turned on there
was no change: the cylinder failed
to glow.
Don't you see?" Sheridan said,
his eyes bright with excitement.
LENA did not touch the switch; she
naturally never even thought of it..
Had the cylinder been glowing she
would not have touched it. 1t looked
cold and harmless.
And it was harmless until the
pressure of her hand caused the
piece of insulation to slip out and
close the circuit. Look!"
He Tipped off the switch and
took hold of the cylinder, twisting
it in the clips. The fragment of in
sulation fell to the bench and the
edge of the cylinder made full con-
tact with the clip.

sure it wasn't idle curiosity"

CHAPTER NINETEEN

THE laboratory door was locked.
Il In the silent darkness lay the
body Of the unfortunate maid, alone
with the shadows. Upstairs, Sheila
sat at the bedside Of the historical
cook. In the living room Sheridan,
Smedley and Wilbur conferred in
lowered voices.
"I do not like to voice a theory
until it has been proved fact" said
Sheridan. Theories too often lead
to false conclusions. The three Of
US here are in possession of knowl-
edge which might lead us to an al
together different Interpretation OF
Lena's death than would be put
upon 1t by the coroner. And yet,
our Interpretation might be alto
gether wrong.
Remember, the authorities so far
know nothing of the safe robbery
and the theft Of Mrs. Wilber's diary.
1t still is imperative that that be
kept from the public. I suspect
strongly that there is some link be-
tween the burglary and this terrible
tragedy, but 1t is obvious that we
can not voice that suspicion to the
police"
what are you driving at?" Smed-
ley asked. at can't for the life of
me see any connection between the
two"
'T don't want you to-" Sheridan
replied, Eat least not until after the
coroner has questioned you. 1t will
be safer. Only the three Of us and
Sheila know of the burglary. I un-
derstand the servants have no ink
ling of it.
by the way, Mr.. Wilbur. Sheila
told me you have a housekeeper, a
Mrs. Hendricks, believe. Where Is
she?"
"She has a week off," WILDER re-
piled. "She Is at the bedside of a
sister IN Dayton, who was taken i'll
suddenly"
THANK heaven for that" Sheri-
dan exclaimed. There's one less in
the know. I suggest We let the
coroner form his own conclusions
and the verdict, am sure, VIII be
accidental death. But not a word
about the burglary. Please warn
Sheila to that effect"
aft the death actually turns out
to have been accidental" he Went
on, ell well and good; If private
Investigation shows it to have been
otherwise, We then can notify the
police. II, in the meantime, the
diary Is recovered and destroyed
would advise you to destroy it, Mr..
Wilber-there then would be no I'M
pleasant comeback to any publicity
about the burglary and the ends oil
Justice would be as well served"
And so it was agreed.
TINE coroner came, looked and
l. listened. He was acquainted
with Smedley through official asSo-
citation at the courthouse and made
only . perfumctory examination.
PLAINLY accidental" he said after
he had heard Sheridap's story OF
the finding Of the body and his
theory that the girls curiosity was
the cause of the tragedy.
He reprimanded WILDER quietly for
having left the laboratory unlocked,
but, noting the inventors grief and
distress, continued in a kindly tone:
"Of course. 1t was the girls own
fault; she had been warned Of the
danger"
"WilI there be any police action9"
WILDER asked faltering1y.
why. there's no reason for that"
the coroner replied. There Is no
criminal aspect to this case to de-
mand their attention. Nor viii there
be any necessity for formal in
