TOO MUCH MONEY.
Phladelphia Youngster Takes Cash
Leaves.'
I
New York, Dec. 4.?Arrested here
tonight after he had bought a ticket
for San Francisco, Elliott Micliner,
15, Philadelphia office boy, told police
the story of a week's travel and
adventure that followed his disappearance
from Baldwin Locomotive
Works November 26, with $4,300 of
the company's money. Officers found
$3,600 of the money in his suit case
and the rest he told them he had
spent.
The $700 that was missing had
gone, he admitted, in the purchase of
new clothes?suits with long trousers?for
$3.00 meals in the best hotels
in Philadelphia. New York and
Chicago, for $1.00 tips to waiters and
for berths in Pullman cars. There
were movies and other entertainment
He was helping pay off employees
in the company's office when he took
the money "just drew a couple of
years' salary in advance," he toold police.
"Who wouldn't?" he asked. "I have
been getting $8 a week as an office
boy in the Baldwin works. They hand
me $4,300. I had to count it, too,
you know, and they tell me to take
it to the paymaster. It was more
money than I ever took before. It
looked awful big and it felt big. I
had the feel of it rigth in my hand
when I sawr an open door. Well, 1
blew. Who wouldn't?"
First he went to Camden, N. J.,
bought clothes there and then came '
to New York. !He intended to go
west and "loaf a bit" but he read <
in the papers he was believed to have
gone to Spokane, where his father
was reported to be dying, so he went
only as far as Chicago. Life there
palled, so he came back to New York and
went to Philadelphia. No one ?
recognized him there so he returned ,
to New York last night and decided
to chance the west. As he bought his ,
ticket a detective arrested him.
After first telling detectives that
he had been visiting friends here and
was going to the Pacific coast to see
relatives, he later admitted the theft
and told his story. He was turned
over to the Society for the Prevention
of Cruelty to Children.

Columbia Dentist Disqualified.
Columbia, S. C., Dec. 3.?For having
advertised that he could extract
teeth painlessly ana for having further
advertised in an "unprofessional
manner" Dr. J. E. Harris, dentist,
will no longer be able to practice his
profession in South Carolina, according
to an order handed down today j
t
by Judge Townsend, of Columbia.
Dr. Harris's license was revoked
by the state board of dental examiners
some time ago, and he appealed
to the court from the decision. Judge
Townsend's order upholds the den-!
tal board and dismisses the petition j
of Harris.
Among the numerous charges:
against Dr. Harris by the board was j
that he had violated the ethical clause
of his promise to the state examiners
and further that he advocated equal-j
ity of the white man and the negro, j
Dr. Harris is at present located in
Columbia.
