SOME FISH STORY
(Special to Gateway by United Press)
TIFFIN, 0., March 28.—Here's the
queerest ent y in the early-fishing
story contest. Eugene Schultz, 12,
while skating on Rock Creek broke
through the ice. He sank to the bot
tom and in his terror clutched out
wildly. His hand grasped a 21-inch
black bass. He was still tightly
holding to it when other boys rescued
him.

TO AUCTION NAPOLEON'S
WAR CHEST AND BED
(Special to Gateway by United Press)
NEW YORK, March 29.—*To the
highest bidder today at an auction
sale in West Forty-fifth street will
go Napoleon’s War Chest and his bed,
! Marie Antoinette’s vanity case and
the boxful of other personal belong
ings she took with her to prison; also
dozens of other personal effects of
Kings and Queens, Pukes and
Duchesses and other nobles.
The sale is that of one of the most
interesting anti priceless Napoleonic
collections in the world. It is known
as the Stephen Jumel collection and
1 was brought to America by Jumel in
1816, when he took a ship to Europe
1 to bring back the dethroned Emperor.
The collection is being sold by
Jumel's descendants. It has been
thought for many years that tlie
collection would be presented to the
City of New York.
Mme. Jumel married Aaron Burr
in 1833, a year after Stephen Jumel
died. It was to her that Napoleon
presented his battered leather war
chest, designed and used by him in all
his campaigns from Toulon to Water
loo. With its secret key, Napoleon
gave Mme. Jumel the chest the day
before he sailed for St. Helena.
Also to be auctioned is Napoleon’s
bed, which he used in 1800.

EIGHTY SUITS IN
FAIRBANKS IN YEAR
FAIRBANKS.—During the year
1015 no less than eighty civil cases |
were started in the United States j
district court at Fairbanks. This does
not include the civil suite started in
Ruby «nd Iditarod for the same
period. Some of these cases were
settled out of court, some of them
were tried in the United States dis
trict court, while still others are now
pending.
Of these cases, the law calendar
included the largest number, with
thirty-three to the credit of this
branch of the court. Equity came
I next with twenty-four cases, while
there were twenty-one divorce cases
in addition. There were also two
Vases in admiralty. At the last ses

! than twenty-one divorces granted, but
| some of the cases were old ones that
I had ben on file for some months be
fore.—Ex.
