Wai Inmate of Reformatory—Charac
terizes Institution to Which He Was
Sent When a Boy, as a
“Crooks' College.”
New York.—I’ve been a thief ever
uoce I was 12 years old. In the last
seven months 1 have attended various
functions at Newport. Xarragansett.
Beverly and Providence. 1 have made
to that time 3a successful "hauls." I
am going to tell how I did it. and
tow by similar methods other crooks,
working for the ease man that trained
me and for themselves, have teen do
ing the same thing for the last ten
years or more.
This isn’t a '’squeal." said the crim
inal in his confession. I'm not going to
give away the man I worked for nor
the man I worked with.
1 wasn't born anywhere near society.
I'll bave to go a bit into my history to
make it clear bow easy society Is to
manipulate. 1 was born in Fall River,
Mass My parents. both hard working,
re-pectable weavers, still live there. 1
made my Srst break playing bookey.
They tried to send me away for it. and
» bile the case was still pending I stole
a pair of rabbits, and that finished me.
1 went to Lyman reform schobl in Mas
sachusetts for a year and six months.
One afternoon while walking through
'lie cuumon. I felt a hand on my shoul
der. It was an ex-convict whom I
knew.
Gone tome!” be laughed. "1 guess
you'll be back to work soon.”
“I've got a Jab for you, and I want
to girt you a chance. I'll give you a
five spot to go to Providence and give
a man there a letter."
1 didn't see bow | could lose, and 1
took him up. That letter was my initia
tion Into society The providence man
was a big merchant. He told me point
blank that te wanted me to turn some
tricks for him. I still wanted to be
straight He showed me I couldn’t be.
1 believed him. After a week the chief
told me that he had got hold of an In
vitation for roe to attend a ball given
by the patrons of some charity or oth
er and to be held in Bostcn.
The card bid to be presented at the
door There was to be a very select
crowd. About nine o'clock I presented
my card and walked right In with the
crowd. When 1 got into the ballroom,
1 waa dazed. It was the first thing of
the kind I had ever been any way near
—for the theaters after all are public.
The swarm of beautiful women In even
ing dress, the decorations, the music,
the brilliant lighting, were all new
to me.
The chief bad told me that a “Mrs.
Judson” would be there. That's not
her name. I'm not giving the real
name* In any case This “Mrs. Jud
son” was expected to wear a very val
uable diamond stomacher. The chief
didn't expect her to wear It long after
1 met her I bad a lot of “dope” about
this “Mrs. Judson.” and 1 was all
prepared to talk to her about acquaint
ances and Intimates. 1 hadn’t been in
the place many minutes before I ran
across “Mrs. Judson.” She was very
haughty and very beautiful. I was
afraid of her. Twice 1 went up to her.
determined to address her. to claim ac
quaintanceship, and each time my
courage failed.
Then I got the idea that I was dis
covered. that the guests had sized me
up. I lost my nerve completely. A
young chap—l afterward found out
that he was one of the Wintbrops of
Boston—sauntered up to me. and ask
ed ma to take a drink with him. say
ing: "I'm sure I met you at the bach
elors' ball In Philadelphia last year!”
A day or two after he gave me an
other chance. It was a big affair at
Beverly. One of the guests owned a
very valuable sunburst of diamonds,
and I was to get it
I got into the place easily, and in a ,
very few minutes 1 located “Mrs. |

in the city jail and was imprisoned an
hour before he got the attention of a

The chief had gone into the jail tc
make his usual inspection of the in

and. noticing the door was open,
closed it and went on.
The chief found himself a prisoner
Some of the prisoners proposed a
game of seven-up until an officet
should show up. but the chief's uneasi
ness aroused him to the point of keep
ing a constant watch through the bars
for passersby.
A small boy heard the plaintive call
of the head of the police department
and stopped. It took considerable per
suasion on the part of the prisoner to
convince the urchin that he was chief
of police and not a prisoner.

Unique Contest in Probating Strange
Testament Begin* in Penn
sylvania Courts.
Harrisburg. Pa.—A will, most singu
larly discovered sewn in the hem of
her black dress months after her
death, may upset the disposal of a
J50.000 estate left by Mrs. Margaret
J. Durkee. when she died In this city
on May l last. Those who have In
the interval divided up the estate by
process of administration, not know
ing that there was any will, are con
testing the testament’s validity, and
a hearing of the case under oath was
held in the law office of Hargest &
Hargest here.
Among the effects left by Mrs Dur
kee were a number of pictures and
silk dresses, all of which were dis
posed of at public sale. Among the
purchasers was Mrs. Minnie Moores of
Baltimore, a niece of the deceased,
who bad ber purchases shipped to
Baltimore. Several weeks ago Mrs.
Moores' husband was hanging one of
the pictures, and he noticed that the
back of it was loose. In It he found a
small piece of paper, rolled tightly,
alleged to be Mrs. Durkee’s handwrit
ing. and saying:
“Look in the hem of my black silk
dress.”
It happened that among tbe gar
ments purchased at the sale by Mrs
Moores was this identical black silk
dress, and she at once got out the
gown and began an examination To

her beloved niece, Mrs Moores This
she is now trying to have admitted to

White Woman Weds Jap
Oriental Restaurant Owner Marries
Connecticut Girl—Courtship
Is Brief.
Portland.—A marriage license was
issued at the county auditor’s office to
] a Japanese man and a white woman—
Harry Hosada. twenty-six years old. of
Deer Lodge. Mont., and Georgia Frank
lin. twenty-three years old. of Rox
bury. Conn.
The county auditor's force did not
feel that it was the proper thing to
do. In granting the license, although
th« two were well appearing, but there
was no alternative, as the law specifies
that any one having the required
amount of money and no nearer of kin
than second cousins may marry. Pro
viding further there are no prohibi
tions from diseases and no divorce
from former marriages.
The couple were married at All
Salats' Episcopal pariah house by
Vary Raw. William C. Hicks, dean of
tbs cathedral
Dean Hicks said: “Mr. Hosada is a
baptized and confirmed member of
the Episcopal church in Deer Lodge.
Mont., is quite Americanized and is
proprietor of a restaurant there Miss
Franklin is a Connecticut girl. She
came to Deer Lodge a few weeks ago
and started to work in the restaurant.
She and Mr. Hosada evidently fell in
love and decided to get married in
Spokane. They left for Deer Lodge."

NEW MAYOR ON THE LID
“Corrupt and contented’' no longer
describes the condition of Philadel
phia. The new administration of May
or Biankenburg i& purifying the city
and vice is already on the run. seek
ing cover.
The other Sunday for the first time
in 30 years the saloons of the city
were closed and all of Philadelphia
from center to circumference was as
dry as a bone. Not only were the sa
loons closed, but even the unincorpo
rated clubs shut their doors, and the
various speak-easies, of which there
are more than 1,000 in the city, were
in the main as quiet as a graveyard.
The few that opened were promptly
raided. The doom of the speak-easies
has been sounded in Philadelphia, for
not only is the administration opposed
to their existence, but the brewers and
licensed saloonkeepers are also mak
ing war or. them and soon their names
will be only a memory.
But the reform administration of
Mayor Blankenburg has gone further, and disreputable resorts of all kinds'
are under .the ban. Fully 600 of these vile dens have already closed their
doors and their proprietors are looking for quarters in other cities. The
gambling joints also have put up their shutters, and the man has to be well
posted to find a place where he can buck the tiger.
The closing of saloons, however, on Sunday has given offense to a large
German element, which consider the use of beer as much a right on Sunday
as upon week days, and they feel particularly displeased because it is a Ger
man who is depriving them of what they consider their rights. But the
mayor's position has been taken, and from now until the end of his adminis
tration it is his determination to make Philadelphia one cf the best governed
cities in the land and one of the cleanest morally.
FRENCH CHIEF WITH TAFT
President Taft’s efforts to secure the
ratification of arbitration treaties with
France and Great Britain was the spe
cial theme of an official speech made
recently by President Fallieres at the
New Year's reception to the diplomat
ic corps at the Elysee palace in Paris.
There was a large attendance of dip
lomats at the function, among them
being Robert Bacon, the American am
bassador
Sir Francis L. Bertie, the British
ambassador and dean of the diplomat
ic corps, presented to the French ex
ecutive the New Year felicitations of
the foreign representatives. He de
clared that he and the other members
of the corps felt certain that France
would continue to be a powerful aid
in every work having in view the
progress of civilization. He added that
this permitted the hope that the gen
erous initiative of the president of the
United States in favor of the exten
sion of arbitration to international
questions \*ould be productive of larger results during the coining year.
The countries we represent,” continued Sir Francis. "know that they are
sure to find In France a powerful auxiliary with which to obtain these
results."
Responding, President Fallieres assured the diplomats that France would
labor in behalf of progress. France, he said, already could with modesty
claim her part In the initiatives that have been taken and frcra which civili
zation is reaping benefits.
"Like you, Mr. Ambassador." the President continued, "we congratulate
ourselves that we have seen during the past year the president of the United
States give his precious adhesion to the principle of arbitration. It may be
repeated that the application of this principle will determine for men and
things a decisive method for the pacific solution of international differences."
IS HEAD OF POSTAL BANKS
Theodore L. Weed, chief clerk of the
postoffice department and Postmaster
General Hitchcock's principal execu
tive assistant In the management of
the department, has been appointed
director of the postal savings system
at $5,000 a year. He will assume his
duties immediately.
The extraordinary development of
the postal savings system caused Mr.
Hitchcock to organize a special bureau
to take up the work.
Mr. Weed was appointed to the gov
ernment service from Connecticut in
1S98.
Mr. Hitchcock predicts that before
the end of the current fiscal year the
postal savings deposits will exceed
$50,000,000 and that the system not
only will be self-sustaining but a
source of profit to the government.
Already the deposits have reached a
total In excess of $15,000,000.
Of the four important offices that
' “ ' ~ opened for business August 1 last. Chi
cago on November 30, the date of the last available statistics, led with depos
its of $577,842, New Y'ork being second with $411,769. Boston third with $163.
464 and St. Louis fourth with $119,606.
Preparations now are being made to establish postal banks in about
40,000 fourth-class postoffices that do a money-order business.
GOVERNOR ENGAGED TO MARRY
Robert Perkins Bass, governor of
Hampshire, is engaged to be married
to Miss Edith Bird, daughter of
'Charles S. Bird of East Walpole, and
[a granddaughter of the late Francis
'W. Bird. She is well known in the
i Norfolk Hunt club and for her exploits
I in the hunting field. For the last two
!or three years she has made her home
'in New York. She is a brilliant con
versationalist and a young woman of
•striking personality.
Mr. Bass is the first public primary
[governor of New Hampshire. He was
’nominated in 1910 over Bertram Ellis
k>f Keene in a state-wide primary in
which the old organ! rat ion supported
Ellis and the so-called Progressives,
who bad grown up around the Win
ston Churchill candidacy, voted for
Bass. He w-as elected in November,
1910. He was one of the speakers at
the recent meeting of Progressive Re
publicans in Tremont Temple, in Bos
ton. with George U Record of New
Jersey and Gifford Pinchot of New York It Is understood that Governor
Bass is likely to represent the east as the vice-presidential nominee on the
ticket in the event the Progressives control the next Republican convention.
Mr. Bass has long been interested in forestry and is president of the New
Hampshire Forestry association. Through his efforts in no small part is due
the acquisition by the state of the-Crawford Notch. He is a brother of John
Foster Bass, the celebrated war correspondent. Robert P. Bass was born
in Chicago September 1, 187S; graduated from Harvard in the class of 189«,
and from the Harvard law school two years later. His home is at Peter

SURPRISED DOCTOR.
Illustrating the Effect of Pood.
The remarkable adaptability of
Grape-Nuts food to stomachs so dis
ordered that they will reject every
thing else, is illustrated by the case
of a woman in Racine. Wis.
"Two years ago,” she says, “I was
attacked by a stomach trouble so se
rious that for a long time I could not
take much of any sort of food. Even
the various kinds prescribed by the
doctor produced most acute pain.
“We then got some Grape-Nuts food,
and you can imagine my surprise and
delight when I found that 1 could eat
it with a relish and without the slight
est distress.
“When the doctor heard of it he told
me to take several small portions each
day, because he feared I would grow
tired of it as I had of all other food.
“But to his surprise, (and that of
rverybody else), I did not tire of
Grape-Nuts, and became better day by
day, till, after some weeks, my stom
ach entirely recovered and I was able
to eat anything my appetite craved.
“My nerves, which had become so
weakened that I feared I would be
come insane, were also restored by
the Grape-Nuts food in connection
with Postum which has become our
table beverage. I appreciate most
gratefully and thankfully the good that
your food preparations have dope me,
and shall be glad to answer any letters
inquiring as to my experience.” Name
