PULLAR & NIVEN 5800,000 SWAG 15 BURIED IN YARD jomme in Securities and Jewels Hidden from Police New York, July 15.—For a week after $800,000 in securities and $8,000 worth of Jewels had been stolen from mail bags on the ferryboat Wilkes- JParre, the bulk of the loot was buried in the backyard of Louis Quigley at Ridgefleld Park, N. J. Quigley, who has pleaded guilty to conspiracy to rob the mails, testified yesterday be- fore Judge Howe in the United States rict court against Thomas Benson énr] his brother-in-law, Louis Wind- Quigley, accused of the robbery. who at various times has »been a vaudeville singer, marine en- gineer, machinist and dabbler in war gtocks, admitted under cross-examina- tion that for seven years he had been mddicted to the use of opium. Windler had told him, he sald, how easy it would be to get away with registered mail pouches on a ferryboat some cold morning when the driver had gone in- '{:de the cabin. Just before Christmas /indler, who was a chauffeur in the Postal Transportation service, asked Quigley to join him in such a project, e witness continued. ‘“When I read in the papers months later,” Quigley went on, “about the robbery on the Wilkes- Barre I had a talk with Windler. He told me that he had waited too long for me to provide an automobile and he and his brother-in-law had done the trick with a laughable sort of rig.” A few days later Benson was ar- rested on suspicion while trying to pawn some jewelry and Quigley said Windler was glad enough to turn over ost of the rest of the treasure to him. It was then that he buried it in his backyard, where it remained until he made the trip to Baltimore that resulted in his arrest. All of the valu- ables that he had had were now re- covered, Quigley declared.

Arrested on the same charge was Mrs. Trapp’s negro maid, Mary Cawley, who gave as her home No. 119 West One Hun- dred and Thirty-third street. Mrs. Trapp said she lived in Warburton avenue, Bayside. | stolen in July, 1915, $400 from the pocket of Mrs. Rose Izzo, a grocer at Coney TIsland. Their arrest was due to their appearance earlier in the day in the Flushing court on a simi- lar charge. Mrs. Trapp and her maid, it was alleged, a week ago, by collu- sion, extracted $16 from the pocket of Carmello Jaemmilo, a grocer in Flushing. Mrs. Trapp was held under $2,000 bail by Magistrate Fitch, who made the maid’s bail $1,000. The police have for a vear had the Coney TIsland theft in mind and, with a good description of the woman wanted and noting the similarity in the cases, Detective Callahan . was walting at Flushing for the women when they were released under bail. Mrs. Trapp’s father protested when Callahan said his daughter was wanted a second time. “This is all a frame-up,” he cried. ‘“You have had my daughter held for the grand jury on the charge of being a pick- pocket. Does she look like one? Mrs. Trapp wore a. silk gown and many diamonds. After much per suasion she went with Callahan in her own automobile to the Coney Island station. In June, 1913, Helen and Dolly Hadden were arrested in Hoboken on the complaint of a bootblack, who said they tried to steal his wallet while he was showing them shoe laces. Helen Hadden then told the police Archie Hadden was their father and asked that he be communicated with. CAMPERS RETURN. Y. M. C. A. Boys Have Many Tales of Athletic and Aquatic Prowess.

METGHNIKOFF I5 DEAD IN PARIS, Useful Life of Famous Bacteri- ologist Comes to An End Paris, July 135, 6:3 Elie Metchnikoff, the teriologist is dead m Prof. | famous hac- Professor Metchnikoff was world-famous an exponent of theo- | ries for the prolongation of 1uman life. He was most popularly known | as the great advocate of the “sour milk cure” for old age, believing that the principal agent in senile decay was | the continuous auto-intoxication of the body through the putrefaction of matter in the large intestine and that the bacteria which cause such putr faction could be effectively combated by preparations of milk soured by cul- tlres of selected lactic acid bacilli. Later Prof. Metchnikoff went so far as to declare that the large intestine was as useless in the human body as is the appendix, and prophesied that the day would come when it would be a commonplace operation to remove it. He was the discoverer in 1912 of new microbe which he called the “glycobacteria” in the intestines of a dog and in a paper before the French Academy of Sciences he an- nounced his belief that the inocula- tion of the large intestine in haman beings with this germ weuld go «till further than the sour milk treatment toward prevention of senile decrep- itude. The “glycobacteria,” it was e plained, were sugar bacilli of which the large intestine stood in need be- cause the sugar that was ordinavily taken into the body had already been digested and absorbed by the hlood before it had reached the large in- testinal tract. Of this discovery Professor Metch- nikoff himself said: “In the course of my recent researches I found that there exists in the large intestine of human beings a certain quantity of poisonous substances, which are called indols and phenols, and which have been proved responsible for the grad- ual decay of the system, known as old age. These can be destroyed only by sugar, but in the ordinary way any | sugar or sugary substances taken into the system are digested long before they can reach that far. This applies | to some extent to the lactic acid treat- | ment which I have advocated for some ‘i time past. The problem has been, ! therefore, to discover some means of producing sugar within the colon by some means after digestion, and my | present claim is that I have found a producing microbe, which T call | glycobacteria’ and which is only to »e found in the intestines of the dog. | t may be objected that dogsare not specially long-lived. My answer to this that the dog is a carnivorous animal i i 1 Leonora Lampson, Mrs. Clara Leu ensweiller, Miss Dora Bruemmer, Bd- | ward Laufensweiller, Manlius Norton | and George H. Mitchell.

He was a Russian, born at Kharkoff, May 15, 1845. I nthat region and particu- larly in neighboring Bulgaria a sur- prisingly large portion of the inhabi- tants live to be centenarians, and Metchinoff believed that their longevity was due largely to the fact that their diet included the bacilll of sour milk. Following his education Metchnikoff studied and Munich, and in pointed professor of zoology at Odessa. He held this post until 1882 when he resigned to devote himself to ate ches into the anatomy invertebrates. Tt was while work- ing at lowly nized forms of life such as sponges that he first made the rvations which constituted the sasis of all subsequent work In 1888 he had attracted the notice of T.ouis Pasteur, the founder of the famous Pasteur Institute for the treatment of rabies in Paris, and he was invited to become one of Pasteur's In 1895 he succceded as the director of the institute, a post which he held to the time of his death. In his studv of longevity, Prof. Metchnikoff came to the belief that it should not be uncommon for peopic to live to the age of 150 years. He found every indication that the Luman mechanism was calculated to last far longer than it actually does. arches showed among other imals which had no large intestines llved to an advanced age, particularly birds, which pre serve their yvauthful agility and spry- ness to the end of thelr long span. In {he case of human beings he found that even among those whose suffer- ings were terrible, there were few who wanted to be put out of their sgony by death. They all wanted to Jive. “This,” said Metchnikoff, “shows ihat death between the ages of 60 and S0 is not natural It should not cccur o soon. There is some cause for it, which shauld be discovered and remedied.” If the normal specific Jongevity were attained by human beings he believed that old and not degenerate individuals would lose the instinct for life and acquire an in- stinct for death and that as they had fulfilled the normal cycle of life, they would accept death with the same re- licved acquiesence as they now accept sleep. On his seventieth birthday, 1915, Prof. Metchnikoff was presented with a golden book forming a unique rec- ord of the latest scientific researches, signed by men of sclence of the day. Although there was much con- trover: in the scientific world re- garding his original ideas he was fully recognized as one of the most eminent bacteriologists. He was the author of a number books, including “The Nature Man,” “Immunity in Tnfective ases,”” “Prolongation of TTuman nd “Optimistic Bssays Tn 1908 the Nobel Prize for medi- cal research was divided between the late Dr. Paul Ehrlich of Berlin and Prof. Metchnikoff. The $20,000 which he thus received he devoted entirely to the furtherance of his scientific re- searches. Personally he was not well off. and throughout his long life sac- rificed all but the plainest living ne- cessities to {he cause of science. at Khar- at Giessen org of of Dis- Life A daughter was born today to Mr. and Mrs. Nicholas Wiehn of 50 Lawlor street.
