ISbrntitta fime' 10. 1 9 0 13 Tits' Two of Him Strange Turn in Case of Famous Suicide If there Is such a thing as donble identity the strange case of Aaron Wolfsohn of Chicaga, San Francisco and St. Louis -who was reported to have committed suicide or been killed some months ago. eems to be a fair sample of the phenomenon.

Wolfsohn is neither Dr. Jefcyll nor Ir. Hyde. In cither exemplification of himself he appears not to have attained the suave dignity of the one nor the consummate villiany of the other. Wolfsohn, so it seems, was an average specimen "whether he masaueraded as L.

Reuter. Aaron Wolfsohn, Arthur Wolfsohn, or somebody else. story is that of a man sun- posed to be dead and burled, suddenly coming to life again at a distant place to as Wolfson that the administrator finally gave in, first securing from the company an indemnity bond securing him from any loss in case Wolfsohn's heirs proved, after all, that their relative was dead. Then the public administrator, through his attorney, Leon iloss, and the' insurance company took steps to get at the bottom of the mystery. Mrs.

O'Neil produced letters proving positively that Wolf sohn was her lover and expected soon to marry her. The handwriting is acknowledged to be Wolfsohn's beyond question. But the handwritinig of the new Wolfsohn is equally so far as expert examination can determine. It is as clearly Wolfsohn's as the love letters. Then came mystifying matters in the shape of letters signed Wulfson," "Arthur Wolfson," all, in the opinion of the experts, written by the same nian.

In order to account for his mysterious disappearance the new Wolfsohn says that after taking out his policy at Los deny that he ever lived. It has puzzled I he went to Pittsburg and from life Insurance agents, handwriting experts tbero to Europe on business. He knew unc. judges ot tne law. Thefe are facts irrthecase incompatible with any straight theory and a positive conviction of any kind is bound to ru nafoul of what looks Jike positive evidence to the coMrary.

Ordinarily, when a man commits suicide In a boarding house wh-e he Is well Jkriown and takes no particular pains to his identity it Is an easv matter to(prove that ho Is dead. tfot so in the case of L.

"Mrs. Margaret O'Neil is mistaken when she says she knew mo for many years or that I borrowed $300 from her." says the' new Wolfsohn. "I met her for the first time in my life in a street sar in Los Angeles a day or so before I took out the policy. Wo were quite friendly for a few days, and when I was about to start for the east, she took a ticket, which she bought herself and went as far as Kansas City on the same train. Her sister.

of No. 71S Lucas street, St. Louis. AVolfsohn loved Mrs. May O'Neil of Los Angeles, and was engaged to marry her.

On July ID, 1889, a man committed suicide by inhaling gas in Mrs. Collins boarding house on Main street, Los Angeles, where Mrs. O'Neil lived. Mrs. O'Neil was in San Francisco at the time.

When ehe re-turned to Los Angeles she positively Identified the body as that of Wolfsohn. She paid the funeral expenses and heaped his coffin with flowers. She had known him from childhood, and pointed out how she identified the body. The lan.llndv. Mrs.

Collins, also identified tho body as that of Wolfsohn. No one had been aware that Wolfsohn was in Los Angoles. On a hotel register, however, was the name Reuter. Chicago." and in Jhe dead man's effects was a diary signed Reuter." In spite of this Mrs. O'Neil Insisted that the suicide was Wolfsohn, and letters were produced showing the startling similarity between Wolfsohn's handwriting and Reuter's.

Letters written under the name of Reuter foreshadowed suicide, and it was argued that Wolfsohn, always masquerading under false names, that means of concealing his identity. Tho testimony of Mrs. O'Neil and others, with documentary proof of death, satis-fl the insurance eompnny that Wolfsohn ms dead, and It paid over $10,000 to the public at Los Angeles, to be handed to Wolfsohn's heirs upon 'application. Edward O'Bryan, attorney for the New York Life In Chicago, told a story to a number of people, which, patched together, makes a remarkable addition to the mystery. He said that he had been approached by an offer to produce Wolfsohn alive, provided the company would pay 13.500.

Then he said that the company's detectives in London were shadowing Wolfsohn, and that within two weeks Wolfsohn would be In Los Angeles. In exactly thirteen days from the time of making that statement O'Bryan and the reputed AVolfsohn appeared in Los Angeles. O'Bryan positively refused to permit Mrs. O'Neil to see Wolfsohn. "She can see mo if she likes, but Wolfsohn is through with her." Investigation of Wolfsohn's former life revealed several facts.

It was proved beyond question that he was an adventurer. He had traveled in Australia, South Africa. Europe and Russia. O'Bryan said Wolfsohn was educated in Russia. The man had several names.

He was at outs with his father to such an extent that he spoke bitterly against him. Tho fnthnr in turn, took so little interest in his son that he declined to meet him and showed no special desire to get the Insurance money. He readily waived claim to It when affidavits were shown to him that his son was alive. The old man said he did not care whether the boy was alive or dead. limit of 50,000,000.

If John V. Creely, ex-congressman from the second district of Philadelphia in the forty-second congress, does not appear In the flesh by next September, whether he be alive or not, he is legally dead. For twenty-eight years this man, once prominent, with a good mother and lister, and a comfortable home, has been lost to thoso who loved him, and the other day this sister, now a gr.iy-haired womanthe mother Is dead appeared before Judge llanna in the orphans' court and asked that her brother be declarod dead, so that she could collect money due him by the United government for his tervices in congress. In the application of this sister there was only a matter-of-fact legal document, but by reading between the lines a story was unfurled. It was a story of a mother's love, of a sister's devotion.

The court document was the last chapter of a forlorn hope. In a perfunctory war the court document told how John V. Creely, then a young fellow ot 2S, living at 425 South Fifteenth street, disappeared from his home In July, 1S72. He told his mother he was going to Washington to attend to official duties afterwards he was going to New Orleans, sb ho- declared. Nothing again was ever seen of young Creely by his family.

Then began the search by the mother and sister the search that has continued for so many years. The mother and sister first went to Washington. Theie they learned that the young congressman had been at a hotel for several days, and he left there, saying that he was going to New Orleans, but the fact that he left his trunks packed in the hotel discredits the belief that he started south. Believing that the son and brother wa iwssibly In New Orleans, the mother and sister went there to look for him. very part of the city was searched.

Then thev went to other western and southern cities. Detectives were engaged, and, failing to And him, numbers of the family asln took up the search. England and the continent were visited; Inquiry was made at nearly every capital in Asia and Airica. A triii was made to South America and to the yest. Indies.

But at no point could there bo found the slightest trace of the missing man. So now the relatives lmve given up the search. They think thex is n-t the slightest chance that JtCm V. Creely is living. is prepared for the entertainment of the strangers within her gates.

In the year 1SG0, says Monsieur Com-missaire of the huge Central market Paris ate 200,000 tons of "butchers' meat, 30.53 tons of game and poultry, 28,700 tons of fish, 19,700 tons of butter and 450.GO0.O00 eggs. Multiply each one of these items by three and you will get the amount of flesh, fish, eggs and butter that are now estimated as necessary to supply the private houses, hptels and restaurants in 1900. Strange to relate, however, there is no special effort being expended or difficulty anticipated in laying hands on all this extra amount of foodstuff, nor are any extra preparations being made for itsdis-trlbution over the town. In ordinary seasons France herself very nearly supplies all that the Parisian markets demand. The best beef, mutton, butter and fish eaten in Paris are strictly home production- Normany sends the juicy roasts and exquisite fresh cheese and other dairy products, and not a beet or bean is bought outside the limits of the French market gardens.

In behalf of the exposition crowds, however, an extra supply of eggs has been contracted for in Hungary and i western Russia, the Danish dairies have been levied on, ermany is going to sell a lot of her river and North sea fish, while tons upon tons of beef have been ordered from the United States and South America. As for the' green food and poultry, France can fulfill that contract herself, They lay on the beach, slowly rusting away. I can hear the waves pounding against them.

At 12 o'clock evory night the gates lending into the city itself are b'ocked by countless hundreds of market carts, long, nairow vans, heaped as high as hay wagons with green vegetables picked after the dew has fallen in the afternoon, and every head of lettuce or bunch of radishes so carefully cut, pulled, bunched and packed in the wagons that the appearance of many is as brilliant, aainty and attractive as a cart load of flowers. The wagon drivers, In their sabots and bluo blouses, and tho big Normandy draught horses, harnessed tandem, wait In lines, extending sometimes for miles down the turnpikes, for the customs officers must appraise the freight and receive the tolls and duties before they will pass them through on their way to the Central market.

By these devices the foodstuff, handled but once, arrives almost as fresh as the moment it was taken from the garden or dairy, and the cost of Its transportation Is thus greatly minimized.

Lake Baikal, the largest body of landlocked water in Asia, will, in the near future, be of much more importance to the world than general than at resent, for the Siberian railroad will, as it bring the lake into the world. This the Russian government has already recognized, and, in consequence, has sent a number of ex perienced explorers to study carefully and report upon the geography of the lake and the surrounding district. The report which the explorers have made has greatly enriched our knowledge of this hitherto mysterious sea. Lake Baikal has an area of over 20,003 square miles. The name "Baikal" is derived from a Tartar word.

Baykul, which means rich. The Mongols, on the other hand, call it the Dafcii-nor the holy lake. It is often shrouded In thick fog, and lashed by terrific storms. In the former it is no rare occurrence for the boats of tho fishermen to wander aimlessly for days before finding a landing place. In the storm dozens of craft are sunk.

No wonder, then, that the lake Is feared by the superstitious peasantry. At a distance of half a mile from the shore the bottom sinks down feheer from to 6(W feet. Before the recent investigations it was thought that the deepest point in the lake was not more than 500 feet, which would be feet below the sea level. But Dry-enko has just proved the existence of a depth of over feet, such a depth as ror if can be found nowhere else but in the there is a people on the face of the earth ocean, and which far exceeds that of such who know how to make the uncooked ma- ocean seas as the White. Baltic and North seas.

terials of a meal attractive it is the French. Even the stalls where the shell ttsh. oysters, periwinkles and' snails are sold would encourage the most finikin appetite, while the dUplays of beef are as carefully and artistically arranged as the costliest bric-a-brac in museum or a fine flower shop. Where the huge carcasses of beeves are hnng whole at the four earners of a stall, ctipy starched white linen napkins are tied over the lower half of the body to intercept any ri.ing dust; piles upon piles of trimmed chops are ranged In pyramids with cut white iUper cuffs on every clean scraped bone; legs of mntton- ara hung in folded shells of white paper, and the full-femuH-ed fowls, fattened, picked and prepared with the highest art, wear their ugly heada tucked- out of sight beneath them. WHh such cleverness do the producers of all these calculate the exact amount Paris win consume la twenty-four hours that when the marketing hours are over, the sewers of the markets and the pared ways and stalls washed down with disinfectant, hardly a lettuce leaf or potato peal Is left to cast Into the great garbage wagons.

Little enough remains to go into caid storage, and the greater Quantity of poultry, fruit aa garden truck la hut two hours from the; farms when exposed to the stalls is the morning. For this reason it Is safe to predict that duriag th expestdsa mo the food abundant Strange to say. Lake Baikal does not freeze readily even In deep water, and tratllc Is often open until the end of December. It wag also discovered that while the water of the southern end of th lake freezes completely, that of the north, especially about the Island Oichon, does not freeze over entirely. The latter fact explains the presence on the island of the famous Lake Baikal seal, which form a distinct class, with marked pecolla tides.

With the execTttoa of wber the River Selenga enters the lake, shorts are backed by mountains whose scopes are covered with thick forests of and larch, and whose summits are aew covered. This lake is so wide that from the middle the shores cannot bee ea; and it Is impossible to diaUaguish the movatams from the clouds, the former being relied 1 la a thin, rtotet-ttoted haze, throorh which the sea's rays tlhuxttaaie the gac-lers so that they gutter HVe larswase stars. When the Siberian railroad has been opened there will be a secviee of ps- eenger and freight boats. Ai preheat there are only a. few stroegly isiow Tarry boats.
