POLICE FIND NO CLUE
Threatened With Death if She
Made the Abdtictlou Public
the Mother Braves Her
Tormentors.
New York, June 4, After five days'
Hence out of fear of kidnaper, Mrs.
Fellpo Basso, an Italian woman living
In First avenue near One Hundred and
Twenty-sixth street has reported to the
police that her daughter, a pretty child
of IS years, was stolen lost Sunday. It
la said to be the fifth case of the kind
within a fortnight.
Two men snatched the girl from her;
playmates In the street threw here into
a closed carriage and drove away.
Every effort was made by the Basso
family to trace the kidnapers but with
out success. They were In constant
fear of death and did not feport the
matter to the police until the arrival
of a letter apparently from the men.
It stated that there was no help for the
child, that she could not be recovered
and threatened the Bassos with ter
rible vengeance If they made the mat
ter public. They hesitated no longer,
and a house-to-house search was at
once Instituted throughout "Little
Italy." No clew to the kidnapers has
yet been obtained.
LEADERS FOR THE BLIND.
Bernard Swenker, Who Is Blind Con
ducts School for Dog.
Among the many careers that a dog
that has to work for a living may fol
low is that of leading the blind, says
the Cincinnati Commercial Tribune.
Of course, the work Is one that re
quires some training, and there are, In
fact, a number of what may be called
preparatory schools for this sort of
business.
One of these schools, and probably
the only one In this country. Is con
ducted In Queen City avenue, near the
old woolen mills, by a blind man named
Bernard Swenker. Swenker formerly
lived In East Seventh street, near Vine,
but for the last two years he has kept
aloof from the public and attended
strictly to his business of training
dogs to lead the sightless.
He has found that spaniels make the
best guides, and conducts a kennel of
this breed of dogs.
As the dog which Is destined to act
in the place of a pair of eyes has no
easy task before it, only the most In
tellgent puppies are chosen to be
trained for the purpose,
whose Hfework It will be to lead the
blind, Swenker leaves It with Its moth
er until it Is at least some four months
old. Its playful babyhood at an end,
the puppy begins to go to school, tak
ing as a first lesson the art of walk
ing In a straight line and at a steady
pace.
The schoolroom, to begin with, is the
kennel yard; later It is the neighboring
lanes, and by and by the city's streets.
It takes time for a lively young ani
mal to learn that sudden dashes here
and there must not be indulged in
while some one has hold of the chain
attached to the collar. But after about
two months of dally practice the les
son Is driven home.
By making excursions In all direc
tions, leaving the dog to do all the
piloting home, the blind expert tests
and develops Its sense of locality. He
further accustoms It to traffic, and by
kindly Insistence Impresses on It the
necessity for not only withdrawing it
self from danger, but Its charge as
well.
After from four to five months' train
ing the dog is ready for work. It Is
then, perhaps, nine months old, and Is
kept in constant practice until a pur
chaser Is found. Swenker does not ad
vertise, but he Is known to the officials
of the various charitable organizations
which assist the blind.
When a blind man Is anxious to get
about and has no child who can lead
him, a dog is ordered from the breeder,
who receives between $25 and $50 for
each animal supplied.
Swenker has found his greatest mar
ket in New Tork and Boston, only hav
ing sold one dog in Cincinnati.
When it comes to changing hands
the clever little animal makes a long
Journey by rail, and after it has come
to know Us new master It settles down
without complaint to a life of quiet,
faithful self-sacrlflce. -

Sun, Moon and Earth.
The alteration now occurring In the
distribution In the solar aystem have
led Professor George Darwin tu pre
dict that the moon will ultimately re
turn to the earth which gave her sud
den birth so many ages before; and
It may further be prophesied that the
planets and their satellites must ultl
mately yield to the gravitational In
fluence of our dying sun and must re
turn to the bosom of their parent
We must conceive of the aolar sys
tem of today, then, as gathered into
one central mass, closely aggregated
around that point which from the be
ginning ha constituted Its center of
gravity. And what wll be. the stage of
this shrunken object? It will be a
dark star, dead un. There are my
rlads of usch In the heavens. Sir Rob
ert Ball has said that to count all the
bright star that we can see and aay
"these are all there are" would be like
counting the red-hot horseshoes in
England and saying, "this Is th total
number." This dark to-be will, there
fore, be just such another as millions
more.
There will be no life upon it. W
can not conceive th terror of its cold,
for the nebula has been dissipating
energy, In the form of light and heat,
Into the chilly depths of lnterlsdereol
space ever since the first hour of its
longaeval shrinkage.
What Is the destiny of this dead sun
among whose constituent atom, re
member, will be those In the printer'
Ink before your eyes and those in the
eyes themselves? Are they forever
"stable In desolation." as Stevenson
has it to be borne onward through
Infinite snace? No; the shriveled
globe, the common tomb of un and
earth and Mars and of the bodies of
the great that once breathed thereon,
may live again. Olve It but the con-
Mining embrace of such another voy-
axe and in a moment a new nebula
will be born.
The force of their Impact will suf
fice to evaporate their substance Into
another cloud which will repent the
history of the old. The path of the
two dead suns will determine the post
Hon of the "orlnclpal plane" which
will form the ground plan of the new
system.
POLICEMAN ARRE8TED.
Alleged to Hav Shot Japan Woman
Cook.
New York, June 4. Alexander Chan
dler, a police sergennt, has been ar
