Mystery Ends In Marriage

(a P. By Gua-rdialns‘ Special Wlrc)

BOISE- Idaho. Sept. 1'1. _ Mrs. Dan MoCaffei-ty, the former Virgin- ia. Ewing Gates, 22, daughter of the Weflllhy Dr. ‘Thomas Gates, Phila- delPhia. President of the University of Pennsylvania, prepared today for a career in married life with her wrestler, mechanic husband whom she met on a hitch-hike tour of the west.

Miss Gates disappeared from a dude ranch near Pinedale, Wyo., on Aug. 14. She was found yesterday in Boise after a search for her had spread generally over the United States. With her was her new hus- band, a former El Centro, Calif. taxicab driver, wrestler and mech- anic.

MoCaiIerty, 26, said “we just met and started talking to each other," referring to the beginning oi their romance.

INEED YEARS AGO STILL IN PRISON

MACALESTEIR, Okla, Sept 16 —- (C P): How an aristocratic young German subaltern found happi- nem in the state penitentiary is the story of Conrad Maas, who eloped with a beautiful peasant girl and brought her to America in 1899, then slew her with an axe.

Maas pleaded insanity after the crime, but he was convicted of murder and sentenced to life im- pflsonment. In the penitentiary he took up painting and won wide recognition for his portraits of presidents of the United States and religious subjects.

Efforts were made to secure a parole for him, but independent and proud, he said, "if the gover- nor wants to see me, let him come here." When the parole was of- few‘ to him anyway he rejected it saying: "No one knows me now. My release from the penitentiary would only mean transfer to the poorhnusel preferto stay here with

my friends." Maas’ family have repeatedly sought his release, but his own

independence has been their worst obstacle, and now, nearing 80, he still spends his days with palette

and brush beneath a prison window. Three Drowned

30me patent hearings with whi ,1; I was mnnfliwd. as official r, in 1888 and 1889, were of great 1m- Portance not only to the contest. m“. but also to the general pub- lic. In the former year an 5p. peel was entered by Messrs. J, A. Wright and W. C. Hibbard againd; the Bell ‘Telephone (kvmpany of Canada. The petitioners applied to have the patent granted in May 1879. for what was known as “Blake's Transmitter," owned by the Nsilondents, declared void on the around of importation contrary to "he provisions of section a1 of the Patent Act. The petitioners were successful in their impeachment the finding of the commissioner be- mg m9"- the Patent was null andl void for the reason assigned. An- other application ilor the voldance, on similar grounds, of three other Patents owned by the Bell Tele- phone Company entirely felled, the patents being upheld. They cgvgf- ed “Improvements of Speaking Tel- vvmphs" and "Improvements on ‘Telephones?’

The third application which I Rpm-ted became a. veritable cause Wlfibre. It was the application of the RDYEI Electric Company to seq; aside Patent No. 10654 granted to Thomas Alva Edison on the 17th Novemlber, i879, f0." "New and use- ‘"1 T-Infirrovements on Electric I-a-rrvps. a-nd in the Method of Man_ 1178091171118 the Same." This pot- ent; had been transferred to the

steed of this course being pursued the case was heard by the deputy commissioner, Mr. Richard Pope who, after e patient hearing decid- ed that the application was sus- tained, the patent, es stated, being declared null and void. This was a. bodvy blow tn the Edimn Com- pany. ‘Ihey were doing e. large business in Canada in incandescent lamps, and now if manufacturing by independent firms was to be permitted, it meant a serious loss of revenue to the Edison company.

‘rhere was residing ln Montreal at, that time a. gentleman well known in journalistic and political circles, Mr. C. A. Dansereeu. He. it was who painted the way to the Edison people whereby they could get the ease reopened. I do not know what consideration was offer- ed to him, but it was understood amongst his friends that it am- ounted tp several thousand dollars. Mr. Dansereau promised nothing beyond undertaking to show how the company could secure a re- hearing.

‘Terms having been agreed upon, the informant was put in with the company's counsel. Dansereau demonstrated to their satisfaction that the application for cancellation had been improperly heard in the first instance. As al- ready remarked, the act stipulated that impeachment proceedings must be taken before the “com- missioner" of patents and not be- fore the deputy" commissioner. The latter had no authority, in Mr

Edison Ellrctric Light. Company, of Whlfih M1". Edison wps the principal stockholder. The ground of the im- peacment was “Importation, non- memlfwturlne and refusal w sell,”] contrary to the provisions of the statute. The application was heard by Mr. Richard Pepe, deputy com- misioner of patents, and after a‘ hearing which lasted several days he declared the Edison patent null and void on the ground that the evidence showed that it had been] limported into Canada contrary to aw.

The statute u that time provided ' that if any person desired to im- Deach the validity of a patent the Dmweiiiflgs should be held before the commissioner of patents, who was the minister of agriculture. In-

A’. the sitting which followed the commislmier himself, the Hon John Carling, presided, with him being the minister of Justice, Mr Thompeon. All the evidence had to be gone over again and eminent counsel were heard on both sides When ihe judgment, prepa-cd l-y‘ Mr. Thompson and signed by Mr Carling as oommimioner, was hun- ded down, it was found that the impeachment proceedings had fall- ed. Mr. Pope's decision was revers- ed and the validity of the Edison patent for incandescent lamps was sustained.

N. S. Farmer i Neglects Farming'

(C. P. By Guardian's Special Wire)

HALIFAX, Sept. 1'7.—Belief that development of agriculture in Nova Scotia was hampered by failure of the farmer to concentrate on his own work and markets was expres- sed by Dr. W. V. Longley of the Provincial Department of Agricul- ture ln a brief presented to the Roy- al Commission conducting an econ- omic inquiry in the province.

The Nova. Scotia farmer was apt to neglect agriculture for lumbering. road-work or fishing and his returns dropped markedly as a result, Dr. Iongley said in answering a ques- tion from the chairman, Prof. John Harry Jones of Leeds University,

Nonnal farming areas could be made more prosperous communities if farming were made a primary purpose and the people concentrated on particular branches of the in- dustry.

“We have sections in this province which will compete with the best in Canada or the United States," he said.

There had been rapid development in some sections, he continued, rc- fcrring to one urea in Cape Breton which u few years ago did not have l. trunk guarden or utility poultry. >low auto trucks were collecting the produce of this area for disposal in the largest consuming market in the province. _

The Annapolis Valley had shown decided increases in production of butter and marked progress in poul- try production.

Dr. Langley was the only witness- before the commission on Saturday.‘ Coal dealers are expected to appear on Monday and the commissioners hope to finish their work before the 2nd of the week.

First Cb-rlotfztoflh Company

The first meeting ef the season was held on Monday. Due to a number of the Guides leaving the Company this year the meeting was not very largely attended. There were three new recruits at the meet- ing, Dorothy Michael, Joan Duvar and Peggy Palmer. At. inspection marks towards. the pennant were given for attendance, full uniform and more especially for ropes, pen- cils and paper. Badges were then presented as follows:

Athlete_lean Robertson, Dorothy Carmody, Mary Brown.

Ambulance-Helen DeBlois, Jean Robertson, Mary Nicholson.

Child Nurse-Helen DeBiois.

Second Class—Dorothy Carmody.

The Cup presented by Miss Betty McKay, and now engraved with the name of the Robin Patrol. was handed over to that patrol till next Camp.

Further tests for the Swimmers Badge were held on Tuesday after- noon at the Park, and were success- fully passed by Helen DeBlois, Jean Robertson and Jessica Jenkins.

The Relay race at the last meet- ing took the form of Bunny-Hopping and caused much amusement. The next game was "Singing Proverbs." No Guide Work was done. but a very interesting lmotting game was play- ed to review the knotty problems.

The meeting closed with Campfire and Taps. All the Company regrets very

much that Miss Virginia. Scarth has been obliged to resign the Captaincy. Pending the Local Association Meet- ing's recommendation for the war- ranting of new officers, the Com- pany is being commanded by Miss Bentley, 1st Lieutenant, as Acting Captain, with Miss G. Pry and Miss G. Hart as Licutenants.

Next Saturday afternoon, Septem- ber 22nd, if weather permits, a hike will be held, the meeting place to be at the Rocky Point Ferry, the hik- ers will cross on the 2 o'clock boat. Each patrol is to supply and cook its own supper. A full attendance is requested as tests will be passed in outdoor Guide work.

‘Klt is a great centenary," The Guardian says in its correspondence, “for, in , spite of our traditional prejudice against making a show of our feelings, we have some excuse for rejoicing that England did lead the world just at that moment, 100 years ago, when she freed all the slaves‘ over whom she had any jurisdiction.
