CAPTURED TWICE AND THEN RELEASED fjournal Special Service.) Seattle. Oct. 29. At Kent late last night Leon Parks was held up by high waymen and robbed of his watch and $20 in money. The robbers were met soon afterwards by a deputy" I'nlted States marshal and captured. After a hasty search, In which the highwaymen were relieved of supposedly all their Runs, thev were turned over to Town Marshal Park to be taken to Jail. The watch aiid gold coin, it la said, the rob bers managed to get rid of. but on the way to Jail one of them managed to pro duce another revolver secreted about his person and held up the town marshal In his turn and made their escape. The two brigands started down the street they had just came over, when sud denly they found themselves once more confronting the I'nlted States marshal with a gun. He followed along In their rear Just to make sure they were the name men. He suddenly pounced upon them. This time the holdups were cap tured to stay, but Parks could not Identify them and they were released. "The best li always the cheapest. CLAIMS WIFE; WHO HAS REMARRIED How About a Fischer Piano?

For on It might depend the question of survivorship; the question In that distant country. Yesterday morning he called at the Chard home, but Mrs. Chard saw him. coming and refnaed to answer tha door bell. Upon seeking out Chard the latter agreed to an interview but he took the precaution of having Patrolman Qulnlan sit in a rear room while they talked. Erdale is aald to have been drinking and he threatened the couple with legal pro ceedlngs claiming that ahe was atill hla wife. Finally he left without making any trouble. - Between S and 4 o'clock In the after noon, when the officer and Mr. Chard were away. Erdale returned. With Mrs. Chard were two lady friends. i The door was locked and one or the women neia a revolver to kill Erdale should he at tempt to enter. But the aallor threat ened to break down the door and Mra. Chard let him in. He ordered the other women out claiming that the house was his. They refused and then the, Intru' der requested a private talk with nls former wife. But Mrs. Chard waa afraid, as ahe aaya he always carrlea a revolver. There waa a stormy , scene. but the women were not to be bluffed and Anally got the' man to leave Just before Mounted Patrolman Hammersley rrlved. Mr. Chard In the meantime had been summoned and - when he ' arrived he threatened to kill the Intruder should he ever. again attempt to break Into ills house. Last night the household was In fear and tremblUng. Prior to hia de parture Mrs. Chard stated that Erdale had promised to Itfave the city, but nil word waa doubted. He scratched th following words on the side of the house: "Bernard your only legal hu abend. The only one. Ooa bless you." Chard saya that Erdale la a awlndler. Yesterday he went to a saloon man at Third and couch street ana negan nego tiations to purchase the- business. He said his wife had property in Eaat Port land which she waa willing to put up as security. The man's nerve almost para lysed him when he heard of another man claiming his home. As a result tt the nerve-racking In terviews yesterday Mrs. Chard Is almost prostrated. She is not In good healtn, due, so say 'her friends, to the abuse she got from Erdale and the years of hard work by which she earned her living. Her frienda have no words too bitter to apply to Erdale. mm 1 2 I I 23 GRAND AVENUE An Obliging Xlg hwaymaa. From the Chicago Chronicle.

Develop ments today Indicate that Marshall Ell liott was deliberately murdered by John Wheeler," who is a member of an illicit whisky gang, although he was acting as a deputy in the Jail under a special guard. The feeling Is high and there Is danger of lynching. The solution of the riddle reallv lies In the fact that "death" 'Is a negative term denoting merely the cessation of lire.' This throws us back upon the question of what "life" Is. V Ithout any aesire to aogmatlie on this much-debated Question, "life" appears to; be merely a convenient name for a series of physlco chemical processes which avowedly dif fer much In complexion from "inoraanlc' phenomena, but which have never yet oeen snown to differ from them In kind. On the contrary, the more we learn about physical and chemical phenomena, the more physiological' 'phenomena we am awe to explain. The essential of 'life' then consists in the capability of re spondlng serially and appropriately, by continual adjustments, to changes in tne environment It Is not the actual demonstration at every moment of its presence that constitutes "life."

The king and queen of Italy are adopting British customs and manners. Many of the old court resent the passing of traditions, but Queen Helene has Installed English servants and tutors in the royal household. The Italian nobility has taken the cue and English governesses find no trouble In getting situations In Rome. Many fash ionable women are taking English les sons, and everyone who claims position in the qulrinal set serves afternoon tea. "The men particularly are bitten by the English microbe." said a woman who passed last winter In Itajy. "They loll in their clubs after the English fashion and Scotch high balls have su perseded native wines. Polo has be come a 'fad.' and on the Campagna the polo games bring together the fashion able folk as nothing else will." ? The queen of Italy drives In her car riage of state to the polo Held and holds informal court on the side lines. On some estates In the south Of Italy golf links have been laid out and it is not unusual to see Italian nobles In plaids and pink coats. What meaning haa the won "i v. when applied to the aeeds of wheat which grew after having lain thousands 01 years in a mummy s coffin? Evi dently this: A seed represents a collec tion of chemical compounds which, under euitatole condltlona (of tempera- iuio mm moisture; are capable of pro duclng, by their mutual Interactions. n other series of compounds, which, in wieir turn, are capaoie of producing, by their interactions, a third aeries of com- pounas representing in their totality, respectively, the first, second and third stagea in the development of the plant. But, as Ryder has shown, this repeti tion in heredity 1s conditioned upon repetition in environment that is, the seed will respond in a regular serial order only provided the physical and chemical forces act upon it in the regu lar rerlal order to which it has been adapted, through countless generations, to respond.

Placed in water, howover. during the first 20 minutes they imbibe It, swell and become round and smooth, and fertilization occurs. But after the swelling and fertilization have occurred the contents of the egg are in a different physical and chemical condition than when first extruded, and this different physical and chemical con dition It is which involves the next change of state, cleavage. Yet that the latter change is no necessary outcome of the swollen, fertilized condition Is shown by the possibility of Inhibiting It indefinitely by a lowering of the temperature. The possibility of the continuance of "life" then depends upon the ability of the chemical compounds which (collect ively and at any given moment) we term "the body," to give rise to another aiml lar collection which shall be able Inter 9e to maintain a similar adjustment of Internal relatione to external relation. Conversely, when, the formation of such a derivative collection is no longer pos sible, "denth' ensues. Less abstractly put, "death" is the name we give to the inability of the organs to act together with the harmony which characterizes "life." The rupture of tha vital har mony does not however, preclude a cer tain amount of activity with blood, or other suitable fluids, the heart may con tinue to beat, the liver to secrete, etc although the Individual -is "dead1." This mode of viewing the question seems to be the only philosophical one. For Just as there is no possibility of assigning a moment at which, in development, the physlcocheinlcal forces pass over Into me -viiai. so here there is no possi bility of saying when the "vital" forces pass over Into the physlcochemical. All we can do Is to set an arbitrary limit by way of definition, and say that tho "individual" Is "dead" when the har mony of interaction in the "vital trippd" urn BCD'. hind tha run. sternly.
