SURROUNDED IN A HOUSE FROM WINTER TO APRIL NO AGREEMENT PROBABLE
WITH APPARENTLY EVERY AVENUE OF ESCAPE CLOSED, BUT $10,000,000 GIRL AND POOR WAITER DODGE.
(American News Service) Philadelphia, Jan. 3. Apparently trapped beyond hope of escape a girl believed to be Roberta Buist De Janod, the 16 year old heiress, today slipped out of Lancaster, Pa. and made her way with Frederick Cohen, the waiter with whom she eloped from this city, through a battalion of detectives. The couple was accompanied by a strange woman, whose identity , baffled the authorities. Miss De J anon, who is heiress to the $10,000,000 of Robert Buist. the Philadelphia seed man, reached I,ancaster last night with Cohen and the strange woman. The trio went to a quiet hotel, and within a short time the place was surrounded. Acted Too Slowly. When the police today were prepared to act, the three had escaped.
They were traced to a trolley car run
ning between Lancaster and Vintage. They did not reach the latter place, end the supposition was that they
liad taken refuge at a farm or road-
house.
Cohen, the waiter, three times Miss De Janon's age, whose strange power over her has brought her family to
Borrow, evidently was able to keep
track of the moves of the police, ac
cording to the theory of the latter. The man with the girl knew the dis
tribution of the men of Chief of Po
lice Bushrod, about the Lancaster ho
tel.
A house to house canvass along the road between Lancaster and Vlrrtagw
was begun when it was found that
the persons wanted had left. A Useless Precaution.
Ferdinand De Janon, the father of
the heiress, who went to Lancaster two days ago when the clews first pointed toward there, left the town for Philadelphia, this morning, to share his daughter the distress of seeing him when she was arrested. Mr. De Janon was confident that the girl in the Lancaster hotel w5 the missing girl. The suicide notes sent by Miss De Janon were mailed, it was ascertained, near the place where Cohen lived, a neighborhood never visited by Miss De Janon, so far as is known.
MAJOR GEN. LEONARD A. WOOD.

ago the designation of Gen. Wood for this position would doubtless have raised a storm of protest both from within and without the army. Today Gen. Wood is admitted, even by those who were his severest critics, to be one of the ablest, most fearless, and squarest officers in the service, and his promotion is welcomed. Gen. Wood was asked for an interview pertaining to the important duties he is soon to assume in Washington. Every officer in the army and nearly every man in civil life would like to know in advance the policy
that the youngest of all the generals ;
will pursue in that important position. Gen. Wood, however, discreetly declined to say anything whatever concerning his policies or anything else that had to do with his administration of that post. He did, however, consent to talk of the army as he knows it. No officer takes more interest in the men of the service, both officers and enlisted, than he, and none in the regular service has more at heart the welfare of the country's National Guard, which in time of trouble would be called upon to form, with the regulars, the backbone around which would have to be built
the great army that such an emergen
cy would make necessary.
Gen. Wood believes in joint army-
militia manoeuvres. He also believes the canteen is a good thing for the service; that the future of military aeronautics is brilliant, and that too
much cannot be done to improve the condition of the National Guards of the various states. On all of these subjects he talked the other day.

"The theater of operations, if properly selected, is large, covering, whenever practicable, an area of from one to two thousand square miles. The opposing forces are separated from each other so that at least two days will be necessary to locate each other
and establish contact. All this calls for the careful preparation, study and use of maps, the use of territory to the best advantage for offense and defense, the establishment of telegraph and signal lines, the employ
ment of field entrenchments and. above all, the careful manoeuvring and handling of the troops in the face of the enemy. Manoeuvres are made very realistic by the assumption of conditions which would pertain in case of war, and by the careful enforcement by a large number of selected officers of all the rules which would govern the troops under conditions of actual operations.

The property loss by fire in Rich

city in the year of 190S. The total
loss last year was $29,480 as against

largest and, in fact, the only big fire
during the year 1900 was that of the F. & N. Lawn Mower Works, on March
21st, when a $25,000 loss was sustain

NEGRO BADLY FRIGHTENED
(American News Service) Ossining. Ny., Jan. 3. Two murderers were electrocuted at Sing sing
prison this morning. They were William Barobuto, an Italian, and William Morse, (colored) and the latter was the first to meet his fate. While he was being strapped and Rev. Jones, the Protestant chaplain, repeated prayer, Morse was asking excitedly "How many minutes are you going to give me? Just as State Electrician Davis stepped back to give the final signal, Morse began to speak again and had reached the words "Say now," when the current went hurtling through his body. The first shock was administered at 5:55:Oo and was continued for one minute. The second shock of six seconds duration was administered, beginning at' 0:57:30, and Morse was pronounced dead at 5:58:30. Barobuto next entered the room. He repeated the prayers with the clergyman and just before he was fastened into the chair, he made the sign of the cross. The electric current was applied at 6:04:45. Only one shock was given, the' current being reduced gradually and again raised to its maximum voltage. The time of death was announced officially at 0:07.
Morse killed a policeman on Willoughby street, Brooklyn, and Barobuto killed two Italians, Graotano Finiso and Carminio Scarlotta at Sunnyside just outside - of Middletown in Orange county on January 20 last.

To Whom Honor Is Duo. As a pendant to the story of the professor who upon being questioned on the witness stand declared that he was "the greatest living scientist,' saying apologetically afterward that he "was on oath," comes the following anecdote from a New England college: Dr. H. had been unfolding to his
class In physics a new and startling

The reason why Ferranti was not naturalized in April l!Xfe was that his wife received a divorce from him for cruel and inhuman treatment, in January 1908. In this connection it also comes to light that Ferranti, after his American wife obtained a divorce in the local courts, went to Cincinnati and had divorce proceedings filed against a wife living in Italy. This divorce was granted. In filling out his first application for naturalization, Feranti said that his wife in Italy was dead. As soon as he had obtained a divorce from his first wife, he was remarried to his second wife. He has three children, one by his first wife who lives in Lacedonia, Italy, and the two by his present wife. Ferranti has been in this country for a number of years, and is able to speak English fairly well.

highly regarded than square meals, the latter often being sacrificed for
the former. There are. as has been explained, only certain parts of London in which one can live and be recognized. It is divided into districts, the most important of which bears the address London, W. The next district in importance is S. W. (southwest). This includes Chelsea, where the artists congregate, and South Kensington, where upper middle class fashionable folks live. N. W. (northwest) includes Hampstead. St John's Wood. Belsize Park (one of the prettiest and healthiest parts of London), where wealthy city
men reside, and the many large residences there can boast beautiful gardens and lawns, such as are unobtainable in any other part of London. The next district and one of the most closely populated is W. C (west central). It is a world of boarding bouses, and. being the most convenient part of London for railway stations, places of amusement and sightseeing generally, it is peopled with the most cosmopolitan set to be found anywhere In the world. One of the puzzles of this address is that If you write W. C after it the recipient will probably not bother to call, but if you write in such and such a place and add "Russell square" that makes it all right. Russell square is recognized, but west central is not. On meeting new people the first thing they invariably ask is your address, if you are wearing a nice frock and say you lire W. they immediately ask you to dinner, but if you say west central the nice frock carries no weight. They simply say, "How very oddr and talk about the weather. London Letter m New York Sun. -
