VENTION WINS HN HS LIBERTY | FROM SG SN Young Prisoner Designs Auto- mobile Dust-Proof Dump Cart in Shop. A young convict doing a five-year @treteh for grand larceny has won his Telease from Sing Sing by his skill as @ mechanic. His particular service to the State was the perfection of the new Automobile dust-proof dump cart, whtoh Promises to revolutionize the removal of ashes from the streets of American | cities, “The boy does not yet know what we Propose to do for him," @ald Warden John 8. Kennedy to an Evening World reporter to-day. “But he deserves « yarole if not a full pardon. Superin- tendent of State Prisons Joseph F. Scott | 4e interested in doing something sub- tential for the young mah, and we Agree that freedom is about the most substantial gift the State can bestow upon him." Warden Kennedy requested that the young man's name be omitted from any article written about the reward he Is to get for his remarkable intelligence {nthe service of the State. Mr. Kennedy »pent six years as probation ofMfcer with Agsistant District-Attorney Frank Moss, and his investigations and experience have shown him how 2 prison term can outiive the ex-convict himself. PRISONER SHOWS REAL GENIUS AS MECHANIC, “This boy's future te altoget ‘bright to be marred by aay wiot, one tingency arising,” he said. “He seems to be @ real genius in mechanics, No Obstacle will be placed in his path it the prison authories can prevent it." The young man who has won these words of warm praise is of German ex- traction and about twenty-eight years of age. His offense was grand larceny, t! 5 stealing of two automobile tires, for which crime he was sentenced three Years ago from this city. Infatuation for a young woman was the motive be- hind his act of wrongdoing. So far as can b: ascertained none of his former friends xnow of his present r''ght.

The raising mechanism is composed of @ worm and screw which has a safety device that stops the body when it has feached the proper height. Every part of the cart was put together by con- victs. So that there be no confilet with labor outside of the prison, the Board of Classication will fix the price at which these carts are to be sold to cities and towns within the State. New York City is expected to put in an early order, Warden Kennedy has 6 Foreman Butler that he procure pat- ents for the cart, and then concede the rights for New York to this State. No State government can take out patent. Outside New York State But- ler and his unnamed partner could then reallze something from tl J pro- tected by patents. Otherwise the efforts truck building companies. As for the prison genius—he will doubtless be chiefly concerned in the Plans to effect HIS FREEDOM.

Miss Frances Stevens, a pretty little Wellesley Alumna who went abroad to put in a prosaic year perfecting herself as @ watercolor painter, returned to hor native New York to-day on board the Holland-America tiner Potsdam with the distinction of having knocked off the wig of the deposed Shah of Persia, tmv- ing been the recipient of a formal visit from the Shah's son, and having, while in Madrid, ridden all the King’s horees and charmed ali the King's men. There was born in Miss Stevens a love in fact she was brought among , since her home at Seventy-ninth street is No. Park, In Madrid the Lord High Keeper of the Stable Key to King Alfonso pro- fessed a prodigious admiration for the American girl, and Miss Stevens pro- ‘tessed an admiration for the King’s horses. Naturally she was invited to ride. One after another the horses were brought out, and each one she bestrode | One wild horse that had thrown Alfonso, the Lord High Keeper, as the title runs, didn't want to let her ride. Mias Stevens pouted—she showed the reporter just how, and he didn't wonder that the wild horse was forthcoming after all, Round and round the court- yard the “outlaw” raced, with Miss Ste- vens clinging to his back. Then he slowed up and displayed an inclination to eat sugar from her hand. And that closed that particular incident. It was just before she sulled for America that Miss Stevens had her en- counter with the Shah. They were both living in the Hotel Dvlena, Paris. She was coming downstairs. He was com- ing up. A portfolio slipped from under her arm and she stretched forward her strong lttle right hand for it. But the strong little right hand clutched, not the falling portfolio, but the up- bobbing head of the ex-Shah. For a moment it seemed to her, #0 she said to-day, that she haa knocked the top of the Shah's head off. Down went the fez and down went the wig, leaving a shiny bald expanse naked to her eye. Miss Stevens apologized in her pest French. The Shah, not to be outdone in politeness, first apologized tn flowery Oriental terms for wearing a wig and then for having @ head at all, Later in the day it was announced to Mins Ste- vens that the Prince Hovhannes Khan, son of the Shah, would like to call upon her and pay his respects. At length of @ half hour or more he poured out the respects and then came to the object of his visit. He wished the girl to promi: would not mention the incident, e his father feared harm at the hands of an assassin and did not wish to havo his presence in Paris become generally known. Miss Stevens kept her promise until the Potsdam docked, and a persuasive reporter insisted on having a story. You must promise not to tell. of Italy, pleaded guilty assault. Firat of- fense.
