NEW YORK, Oct. 3.-w York 1 to have something new In tho line of butlne which will at the name time prove a boon to lone female and aid college ituJenti who do not have their education paid for out of a parental purne. The Idea U or a bureau of es cort, who will vet a gulden, phllono plieri and friend to any women in New York who happen to be without pro tecting man. The idea ha been ug geited before and even tried in a ten tative way by one theatre which offered to fumUh it uher to accompany to their home such women a came to the theatre alone. The plan did not go well, however, partly became of the person ality of the etcorts and partly for the reaton that ha kept meenger boy out of thl field the uniform. The new ecort bureau, however, promises to fur i'h young men, preferably college tu dent of the bent manner, education and character generally.

What ''local ptopielan look upon t the most remarkable case in medical history wa revealed this week by the autopsy following the death of a Mrs. Stevens, who has lived for month with a hole in her heart through which the blood leaked out. According to ell the law of science, this trouble, the first of it kind to be recorded, ought to Lave caused death as soon as it began! Mrs. Bktvens was literally the sickest per. son on record, suffering, in addition to the heart trouble which carried'her off, for which ft name ha not ken chosen, from t Iea six other deadly diseases to soy nothing of many minor ones. How he lived at all U ft mystery. Al though but thirty-three year of age, the liftt of her troubles, sounds like a medical 'dictionary. At the time of her death he was suffering from Bright's disease, chirroal of the liver, tubercu losls, pachymeningitis, dropsy of the whole body and general edema or pufil nes of the brain. In addition to these any of which should have caused death, were & list of minor complaints, making her literally a museum of maladies. If half of what Agostino Oulssepl Grosso, an Italian chemist now visiting On of the most cur oil trancontl- nere, ciaim no can ao iuri uv w nentat trips within the memory of the true, sculptor and maker of animal the North and Dt river and work men 'on the subways. In addition to thl specialized line of underground ac tivity, there are certain Industries that are curled on almost entirely beneath the surface. One of these Is baking, and It h stated that neurly all the bread and pastry eaten by New Yorkers is prejared in the city below ground. There ar thousands of small shops on the East Side that occupy cellar with no light or ventilation except a comes from thn single entrance reached by a steep tlight of stairs from the street. Devotet-s of the mot fashionable life alxo are taking to the underground city since some of the big new hotels and department stores have utilized tho space below the surface of their various ites with door leuding to and from the subway. It is pointed out that a man cun come from Chicago to New York, put. up at ft hotel, visit-several stores, transact business at a down town office and return home without once set- tiiiir foot out of doors. This state of affairs undoubtedly prege the time when there will be a underground city extending over the whole lower part of Manhattan Island with it own street shop and systems of transportation, Perhaps in time a woe of real human moles will develope in the Metropolis. GETS BIG FORTUNE Mexican Leaves Estate to Girl of Photograph. HAD NOT SEEN EACH OTHER An investigator with a Vnt for fact of curious interest hat discovered that while the sky-scrapers of Manhattan are pu-hlng to greater and greater heights, the city underground ha ben growing even more ntpidly. According to his computation, over a hundred thousand carry on their daily occupation below the street and beneath the water of greater New York. Some of these are caisson workers laying the foundations of huge building, employees of the vr present generation came to a spectacu lar cIohj here this week when Ezra Meeker reached this city in ft regular old-fashioned prairie schooner, drawn by a pair of plodding oven. More than a year ago Jlx. Meeker set out from the Pacific coast with the outfit which is seen nowaday in these parts only in Wild West Shows, to follow back the old Oregon Trail by which he reached tho west with a prairie schooner and a pair of .oxen exoctly half a century ago. His progres naturally has not been rapid as the oxen is not built for speed, but it bus ben steady and the pair of ani mals hove pulled the schooner about 2.SOIIO miles, of the ong journey. Traf fic was practically tied up as Mr.Meck er, who i till hale and hearty at event v-six "teed" and "hawed" hi stranue team among the automobile and cabs. The police had considerable trouble in keeping things moving and were called upon to stop numerous fight between street urchins who were attempting to prove by battle tmit the strange animals were buffaloes. Mr. Meeker's long ride was undertaken neither as an election bet nor as a novel health cure, but to arouse interest In tatues generally might as well quit work and begin to look for ome other mean of livebood. Grosso in short, claim to have perfected a proce which lie has demonstrated before various or ganization abroad, by which he can '.turn living or dead animals, human or otherwise, into stone. Instead of chip ping on equestrian statue out of a block of marble in the future, all that will be necessary wil be to secure a horse, nut a man on his back and presto: a statue true to life ia every detail. The dog which has guarded the bouse during his life time, can after death occupy the front lawn as a statue, while the man who find hi affinity can be sure of keping her always by applying the new process immediately. So far Mr. Grosso has confined his experiments to bugs, snake 6r smaller animals, even though there docs not cem to be any demand for petrified reptiles. But his process wil work just at well on human beings, cows, horses or even elephants whether alive or dead, he asserts, cheerfullf of fering to petrify any one' pet ele phant for nothing. The chemicals by which these result are achieved re mains a secret, but it is easy to see hi project for a national transconti- what & complete monopoly of tne statue nental highway to follow the route of making business Grosso might obtain if ions tunnels punning their way under the old Oregon Trail a project that he he wanted to. 3 M oiMtmomM I I; Farm 130 acres, well improved, Terms Reasonable I Farm-160 acres, good house and barn, - $2,250 ' iiStore-22x40, and lot 25x125, Warrenton ij House and lot on 18th street - ; i Cottage of 8 rooms, modern, lot 100 x 100, 4,200 I Fine Lot and 8-Roomed House in Seaside $1100 1,600 1,050 uO.. ! 495i Commcial . f .' Girl' Friend Takes Picture of Her to Mexico and Mexican Fall in Love With it-Leaves Her About Half a Million. MILWAUKEE, Oct. 5. To be left half a million by a person whom one never seen sounds like a fairy tale, but it has been realized n Milwaukee, ac cording to Mis Lydia Paeschke, 1221 Clayboura street. She has been left $400,000 by ft rich Mexican whose, name he does not know and who knew of her only by means of ft photograph token to Mexico and shown to him by a friend of Mis Paeschke. C. E. Jones, who left Milwaukee for Mexico the latter part of May. M3s Paeschke received a letter from attorneys in Mexico yesterday ac quainting her of the fortune left her, and she immediately placed the matter in the hand of her attorneys, Baker & Zimmers, who will take charge of the transference of papers. "It sounds like a fairy tale, doesn't it?" said MUs Paeschke last night. "Yet it i true. It is hard for me to realize it myself; if it had been $4,000 I wouldn't have thought so much about it, but $400,000 why I cannot realize it myself. , "When C. E. Jone wa about to leave for Mexico the latter part of May, he asked me for one of my pictures to take along with him. When he got there he happened to show the picture to the Mexican, whose iuime I think wag Man da, or something like that. ; "A short time ago I received a letter from Mr. Jone and he then told me that my pictuje had made a great impres ion upon the Mexican. He said that when he showed the photograph to Mr. Manda the latter said, "I could learn to love that girl.' "Of course, I thought he was just flattering me at the time and paid no attention to it. Shortly after that I received a letter from the Mexican him self, but I was unable to read it and threw it away, being afraid that some body else would get hold of it. Just fancy throwing away & letter that wasj written by a man who was going to leave me $400,000! "From that time on I heard no more about the matter until yesterday, when I received word from attorneys in Mex ico telling me that I had been left the money by Mr. Manda, who died just recently, and asking me what they should do in the matter. I turned the matter over to my attorneys. "The queerest coincidence is a visit I made a fortune teller last summer. I went down and had my fortune told and she said that at some time not far distant I would be left a vast fortune, but of course I didn's believe it. .They always tell you something like that and I had heard the same thing so often that I paid no further attention to it. I guefs, after all, that she did know something about it. "I wish I had one of the pictures that I gave Mr. Jones when he went away. Since this morning I have been hunt ing high and low for it, but I haven't been able to find it. It would be a great treasure to me after What has happened, but perhaps I shall come across it after the shock and excite ment has worn off. You can nt imag ine my surprise this morning. "I'll bet he wouldn't have left me that money if he bad known that I had been roavried.'?, ;,,., . .' , . ; Miss, Paeschke, was formerly Mr. Paul Rosenthal . and resided at West Bend. She was married three years ago, but on August 27 she obtained ft divorce. Their child is nearly 2 years old. The heiress was born in this city, her parents being Mr. and Mrs. Henman Paeschke. " How to Cure Cold. . The question of how to cure ft cold without unnecessary loss of time is one in which we are all more or 1m inter ested, for the quicker cold i gotten rid of the less the danger of pneumonia and other eriou diseases.
