UHL MAKES PROTEST

CORRESPOXDEXT Ft'EXTES 3IUST BE GIVES A FAIR TniAL. Acting Consul-General nt Havana Instructed to Take Prompt ActionTrouble in Ecuador. WASHINGTON. May 7. Acting Secretary of State Uhl has caMed Acting Consul General Springer, at Havana, to immediately protest to the Spanish authorities against the trial by military court of Manuel Fuentes, the New York World correspondent. The consul general has been enjoined to act speedily in the matter, as there is some apprehension that his life is in danger. Mr. Uhl. the acting Secretary of State, atttenled the Cabinet meeting to-daj-. This is the first time since President Arthur's administration that an assistant &ecrotai-y has been invited to participate in the Cabinet discussions. The presence of Mr. Uhl at the Cabinet ireeting caused rumors that Mr. Gresham' was going to resign, but there appears to be no good foundation for them. Mr. Uhl, it was stated at the White House, had brought over an accumulation of foreign questions arising since Mr. Gresham s illness and was going over them with the President when Cabinet hour arrhed. The President thereupon requested him to stay and read the documents to the Cabinet. TItOL'ULE IX ECl'ADOR. The AVnr Ship Sent to Emeralde to Proteet American Interests. WASHINGTON, May 7. The fact leaked out at the Navy Department to-day after having been successfully hidden from the public for a week, that the United States steamer Ranger had been ordered from Buena. Ventura, Colombia, on May 2, to Esmeraldes, a port in northern Ecuador, where she prooably has been for the last four days, the voyage being only about 450 miles in length. This order was Issued at the request of the State Department where it was stated that the request had been made because the department had been convinced by representations made by Americans having interests in Ecuador that it would be wise to do so. No further statement as to the nature of the trouble that has arisen in Ecuador could be gathered at the State Department, but from other sources it is learned that a revolution is believed to be impending in that country as the outcome of the bitter popular dissatisfaction engendered by the use of the Ecuadorian fiajr to cover the transfer to Japan of the Chilian cruiser Esmeralda last winter. Some American corporations have large interests in silver mines and other properties in Ecuador, and it was upon their representations that the State Department acted, although it has no assurances that a revolution has actually broken out. The coast defense ship Monterey arrived at Panama to-day, from Acapulcol Mexico. Her original orders were to prpceed to Callao. Peru: but tue&e are now Fubject to change In view of the eni of the international troubles in that country and the fact that the rending of tho Alert to Rio del Sur, Nicaragua, has left the isthmus unprotected while the revolution in Colombia U still in progress, will probably cause the Navy Department to detain the Monterey at Panama for a time. The vessels of the Asiatic squadron continue to patrol Japar and Chinese waters. The Baltimore has sailed from Yokohama to Nagasaki, Japan, and the Yorktown from Chin Kiang to Che-Foo. Reclassification of Employes. WASHINGTON', May) 7.-The reclassification of employes of the customs service has been completed and tho rules for carrying into effect all the changes made will be promulgated at once. The changes were necessitated by the confusion of designations, many offices in the service bearing different names though embracing the same duties. This condition of affairs has existed practically since the inception of the service and has grown worse during the past few years. Its results In the routine work of the department have been confusing, causing frequent delays in the certification of appointments, in cases of changes in the personnel and mistakes In distributing appropriation funds. The readjustment was made by the joint action of the Secretary of the Treasury, the Commissioner of Customs and the civil-service commission, much of the work being done by Chief Examiner Webster, of the commission. The readjustment reduces the number of otflcial designations from about thirty to six. The Summer White House. WASHINGTON. May 7. Quite a camplete executive office will be established at Gray Gables for the President's use this summer, and as arrangements have been made for the transaction there of all public business that will necessarily come before him, it 13 probable that hi3 departure for Buzzard's Bay will be made as soon as the weather becomes oppressive in Washington. Private Secretary Thurber will be near enough so he can work with the President every day. No appointments that may be ma1e or other business transacted by the President will be furnished to the public at Buzzard's Bay. but will be sent to the White House in Washington for announcement. All communication with the departments will be through the clerks in charge of the White House here. This method is taken in order to avoid any necessity for the officials to be in attendance at Gray Gables. Elwhty-Scveu Italians Barred. WASHINGTON, May 7. Commissionergeneral Stump, of the Immigration Bureau, has refused Henderson Brothers, of New York, agents for the Anchor Line Steamship Company, permission to furnish bonds for the eighty-seven alien immigrants who arrived in New York on the Victoria, from Naples, April 28 last, and were debarred a landing and ordered deported by the board of special inquiry on the ground that they were likely to become public charges. In bis letter to the Court of Emigration at New York, 'Mr. Stump says the unusually large number ordered to be deported clearly indicates that the Anchor line company does not carefully inspect its steerage passengers at the port of embarkation, thus plainly ignoring, the plain requirements of the law. Patents Granted Ilooslcrs. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. WASHINGTON, May 7. Patents have been issued to the following Indiana in ventors: Charles F. Black, Topeka, dish cleaner; Jarr.e3 D. Bowman, assignor onehalf to H. Y. Miller, Union county, Indiana, earth auger; Allen C. Brantingham, assignor to Nordyke & Marmon, Indianapolis, feeder for mills; Edward and L.

The resignation of Mr. Townsend as superintendent of the Philadelphia mint was received at the Treasury Department to-day. Th appointment of Mr. Herman Kretz as Mr. Townsend's successor and Mr. William E. Morgan as coiner were sighed by the President at once and sent to the State Department, where the commissions will be made out to-night or to-morrow morning. Several other changes are likely to be made soon in the Philadelphia mint. Gresham nnd llltt Improving WASHINGTON, May 7. Secretary Gresham i3 reported to be constantly gaining ground, and it is now said that all danger in his case has passed. It is hoped that he will bo able to leave the city for some health resort in about tt-n days. The report from Representative IIitt'3 house is that tho patient is much le:ter. and hopes are now entertained that he may recover. General Cogswell is reported to be resting comfortably. General Stanton's War Bonnet. WASHINGTON. May 7. General Stanton, paymaster-general of the army, has received from Fort Washakie, Wyo.. a magnificent war bonnet made by the Shoshone Indians.

The whole is ornamented with eagle fcather3. Ttto Americans Released. WASHINGTON. May 7. The State Department has received from Consul Hyatt, at Santiago, a letter, dated April stat

ing that two Americans, Bolton and Richlieu, who have been .in confinement at Santiago for some time on the charge of complicity in the insurrection, were conditionally released. They will be required to report daily to tho Judge of the court. 31R. COOPER TO BE ARRESTED.

"Warrant Issued by the Illinois Senate for the Chlcnso Merchant. SPRINGFIELD, 111., May 7.-After a lengthy conference with Attorney-general Moloney, this, evening. Lieutenant Governor Gill Issued a warrant of commitment, addressed to Sergeant-at-arms Anderson, of the State Senate and all sheriffs directing that Frank H. Cooper, of the firm of Siegel, Cooper & Co., Chicago, be placed In jail and kept there until he signifies a willingness to satisfactorily answer questions which he refused to-day to reply to at the bar of the State Senate regarding the affairs of the firm of which he 13 a member. Cooper, when brought before the Senate, in pursuance of an investigation into the affairs of his firm in Chicago, instigated by a resolution introduced by Senator Salomon, refused, on advice of his attorney, to divulge the private affairs of his firm and the Senate today, by a narrow majority, decided to imprison him for the refusal. Sergeant-at-arms Anderson declined to place him in Jail, unless an indemnity resolution was passed to protect him (Anderson) in case of action for false arrest and imprisonment. The warrant of to-night, however, being directed to all sheriffs, deputies and constables. Cooper will probably be placed in prison. Much interest is felt as to tho outcome of the case. SHOOTING RECORDS BROKEN. High Scores Made at the Cincinnati Inanimate Target Tourney. CINCINNATI, O., May 7. The world's record was equaled half a dozen times and badly beaten once in squad shooting here to-day in the Dupont prize tournament. Over 125 shooters are' here, including crack marksmen from all parts 'of the United States. Artificial targets were used exclusively, from two sets of traps of five each with electric pull and roped firing system. Fifteen regular events of 'from ten to twenty targets each, along with outside matches, weie shot off. The world's record until to-day for six men. twenty targets each, possible 120, was made at Cleveland last year, and was 116. To-day the following six men, Connor, Fulford, Dande, Van Dyke, Glover and Young, made 113 out of a possible 120 artificial targets. Connor's gun got out of order and he changed guns and missed a target, else the score had been perfect. THE CASE DISMISSED. (Ifllcers of Western Dnnk Xotc Compuny Not to Be Prosecuted. CHICAGO. May 7. In the United States District Court to-day. Judge Bunn ordered a dismissal of the suit against Clarence C. Cheney and the other officers of the Western Bank Note Company. The officers of the company were Indicted last fall for printing of the Mississippi State bonds, declared by the United States Treasury Department as being money. The Attorneygeneral of the United States regarded the bank note company as being ignorant of a violation of the law and recommended the discharge of the indicted officers. THE IIAKDIE AIR MOTOR. Xo Trolleys or Cables Will He N'eeded for Street Cars So Fitted. Rome Sentinel. Robert Hardie, inventor of the motor, directed its operation. Mr. Stebblns, of the draughting department of the works, assisted in giving the visitors information. The trUi was made on the 800 feet of rough track iu the yard of the works, with engineer Williams at the lever. The car started out with 1,800 pounds of air pressure to the sqiiaro inch and a temperature of 310 degrees on the hot water tank, which is used to great advantage in heating the air before it passes at reduced pressure to the engine cyinder. A valve constructed for the purpose reduces the pressure of the stored air to 140 or 150 pounds, and this is the working pressure or the pressure at which the air enters the engine cylinders. Th motor starts gently, runs smoothly at a rapid rate, and stops by airbrake without jerk or Jar. It was run back and forth repeatedly for upward of forty trips, and the test showed that under the conditions applied the motor would run twelve miles from one charging of compressed air, and snake seventy stop. The method of recharging the storage cylinders with compressed air was shown. It is a very simple operation, and, with the flexible couplings contemplated for the purpose, the recharging of a car, with power need not occupy more than a minute or two. The same is true as to recharging with hot water, and the two can be done at the same time. The temperature of the hot water tank, covered with asbestos, on the occasion of the trial was reduced from 310 to about 200 degrees In one working hour. Under more favorable conditions, especially In summer, this reduction would be much less, probably not more than half as much. The Hardie motor cars are hung on elliptic spring and the ease with which the car passes over wide joints, frogs or imperfections in the track is something admirable. This very important feature attracted the attention and favorable comment of the inspecting visitors from the East, all of whom know too well the terrible pounding that the trolley car gives tho railroad track, because, like the lumber wagon, it is absolutely without springs. In this respect the Hardie motor indicates a sure and great saving in wear of rails and cars, while affording the utmosf ease to passengers riding. The principles of the Hardie compressed air motor are apparently above criticism. In the initial machine there are one or two minor defects one the escape of vapor on a cold day like the breathing of a horse in which the motor will be improved, without any difficulty, until the car shall appear as a noiseless, breathless vehicle that glides over the iron rails more smoothly than any heretofore produced, while under the most perfect control in starting and stopping. The visitors were very much pleased with what they saw of the Hardie motor, and they watched and inspected and tallied it very thoroughly. As a result of, their visit they havo negotiated for the construction of six to ten of the motors to be used on Eastern lines. The order is upon certain conditions, one of which is the introduction of Pintseh gas light into the cars. This, Mr. Hardie Fays, can easily be done, and any other mechanical requirements can easily be met. The air motor can be used on the simplest kind of track. No trolleys or cables are neces.ary, and the great expenso of overhead or underground fixtures and the cost of great power plants are avoided. Desides, the economy of compressed air ris greater than any other power. In electricity 60 per cent, is lost; in compressed air but 20 per cent. An equipped street railway that for air motors might cost JIO.000 a mile would cost many times that amount for any other system. Obituary. ELIZABETH, N. J..

STILL IN QUARANTINE SPAN' IS II AVAR SHIP IXFAXTA ISABELLA HELD AT TAMPA.

Florida Health Oflleers Refnse to Release the Vessel, Though Requested to Do So by Carlisle. TAMPA. Fla., May 7. The detention of the Spanish war ship Infanta 'Isabella for having violated the quarantine laws by passing the quarantine station at Mullet Key the previous night, is evidently creating a stir. To-day the collector of customs received a telegram from tho Secretary of the Treasury, at Washington, waiving quarantine regulations in the case of the Infanta Isabella. The telegram was submitted to State health officer Porter, who promptly wired the Secretary, respectfully protesting against relaxation of United States law in this instance, adding: "I shall enforce the State quarantine laws." When detained the officer of the Infanta said they were in a hurry, as some one wanted to reach Jacksonville. Tho State board, however, recognized no privilege. Dr. Porter will visit the quarantine station to-morrow and the Infanta will be thoroughly examined and then released to-morrow night. WASHINGTON, May 7. The action of the Florida State Board of Health official in refusing to release the Infanta Isabella, was communicated to the Treasury Department to-day. Secretary Carlisle said to-night, in view of this action, that there was nothing more for his department to do in the matter. His directions to the collector of customs at Tampa had been to Inform the State officials that if the vessel was held by them under the allegation that she was violating the government quarantine regulations she ought to be released. If the vessel is now being held by the State officials under the State laws that was another matter with which he could not interfere. The United States having waived the provision of the quarantine regulations, through which the Infanta Isabella is detained, it would not be surprising if the Spanish government took official notice of the incident and lodged a complaint with the State Department. Mnceo Wrecks n Train. HAVANA. May 7. Dispatches received here say that great Indignation has "been caused in the province of Santiago de Cuba by the fact that Antonio Maceo, the insurgent leader, has removed the rails of the railroad near Cristo. causing the derailment of a train and the injury of a number of people. The troops have dispersed the insurgents commanded by Hilgert. The insurgents this morning attacked the town of Cristo and burned threo. houses. During the engagement the Spanish troops lost one killed and six wounded. The loss of the insurgents is not known. The insurgents also made an attack upon the town of Caney and burned one house before they were compelled to retreat. A TEXAS JEA..E D'ARC. Saint" Teresa, a 3Iexlcan Half-Breed, nnd Her Fanatic Followers. New York World. Down on the shores of the Rio Grande, and in the midst of a rough and thinly settled country, an American Joan of Arc has arisen, with trappings and surroundings as . picturesque, if not as grand and imposing, ? as her historical namesako of the firtenetn century. Like the Maid of Orleans, this modern maid of northern Mexico, of the state of Chihauhua, has a mission that at first sight seems purely a religious one. While Jeanne d'Arc carried before her the standard of dainty white with tho Supreme Being among the clouds depicted on one side and the annunciation on the other, "Saint" Teresa advances on horseback with a small ooden image in her hands, made in the form of the Virgin, its paint worn and Misteted from exposure to the weather, but yet a sufficient talisman to muster to her side hundreds of followers. And it is Interesting to know that this extraordinary woman rides her horse astride. It seems almost incredible that in this learned day and generation such a movement, built on superstition alone, ould.be possible. When reports of the Mexican "saint" first came into Texas they were laughed at and set aside. .Sot for one moment was it believed that a plain and simple frontlerswoman could exert such a powerful sway. But an investigation has proved the story to be true. It; has been verified by communications from the sergeant of a company of Texas rnngfrs and the presiding Justice of presidio county. Such proportions has the revolt assumed that the Mexicans and Americans on toth sides of the Rio Grande have been for a fortnight taking active measures to protect their lives and property. Outlawry is rampant. It is a border war, in which this new Joan of Arc figures as general, backed up by a mob of uncivilized Indims and lowclass Mexicans, religious enthusiasts of the most despicable type, who cne day hide themselves on the American snde of the river, in the ravines and amid the sand hills with which that region La dotted, and the next stealthily ride into the rich mining country of Chihuahua, and, sweeping like a whirlwind, headed by the mountain woman, bearing the image high above her head, her black hair falling far below her waist, her bosom undulating, stampede and sack the little Mexican towns. Weird and curious stories come from Mexican lips as to Santa Teresa's magic curing. The goddess of war, veritably, when in the field leading her platoons-, she is no less, so the gossips say. a divinity of peace andpainlessness when she is in the midst of her works. The Mexicans, on the whole, have been chary about divulging the miraclesthat they swear have been performed before many eyes, but this, nevertheless, is known, that Santa Teresa performs her cures in two ways, by the laying on of hands and by the application of certain liquids which are kept in tiny bottles hung from her neck bv narrow leather thong?, and are never left In sight. The liquids are used sparingly, never more than a drop or two at a time, and their application is purely external. Generally the remedy takes the form of a rubbing on the afflicted part with the liquid. The nearest it ever comes to an internal application i9 when a single drop is placed on the tongue. At each touch of the saint a solitary word of grewsome import 13 muttered, the same sound being repeated over and over again. It is supposed that Saint Teresa's power came from some old medicine men of one of the Arizona Indian tribes. The most of her cures, nevertheless, are performed by finger and palm touch. From all reports she is a marvelously magnetic woman, and if the whole truth were known it would doubtless be perceived that she had the art of hypnotism very fully developed. Her hands are small for a woman of her build and height, daintily formed, while yet powerful. Fcr the rest she is a woman of great physical endurance. Few frontiersmen can handle a pistol better or outstrip her in a ride across country. It is no small task to be a Joan of Arc on the Texan frontier. V. M. C. A. International Convention. SPRINGFIELD.

0HUECH ADVERTISING A 3IETIIODIST SOCIAL. l.MOX DISCISSES THE QUESTION. Churches Mmt Adopt Ilnlne Meth-od-rThe Illhle nn Advertisement of aiornlity The Essentials. New York Mall and Express. The question as to whether churches and their services should be generally advertised, and if so in what manner and to what extent, was discussed at the last general meeting for the season of the Methodist Social Union, held at Jaeger's, Fiftyninth street and Madison avenue, last rdght. About one hundred persons sat down to dinner. The discussion on the topic of the evenwas opened by Mr. Charles A. Dana, who said that the services of the chdrches should be known to all men. and the best way to make them known was by advertising them in newspapers that reach the masses. Nathaniel C. Fowler, of Yonkers, made the speech of the evening. He said: "Advertising, as I see It, is the presentation of anything by any medium of connection. It travels by paper and press, by paint and brush. ' by wire and everything that will. hold or transmit words, characters and sound. Its extract is found in business, its emulsion in the conference and sewing circle. Twenty thousand North American publications print advertisements. There are 100,000 printing offices in the United States and Canada and every printing office produces advertising matter. A conservative estimate says that North American business men expend annually over $130,000,000 in newspaper and magazine advertising. As large an amount must be used every year for printed matter, including commercial printing- in its broadest sense. Two hundred and sixty millions of dollars are expended every year in two countries, the United States and Canada. I am addressing a body of intelligent religionists, folks who hear their Creator in the honest stroke of the hammer, and who believe that the God of Christianity is the God of trade. Something for nothing isn't business and can't be any part of Christianity. Salvation cannot be had without work and sacrifice. Work and sacrifice, therefore, become legal tenders in the legitimate purchase of religion and that which religion leads to. Religion is a commodity and must be handled along the line of successful business development You have asked me to come here that I may try to itell you something about the advertising of the church, and I cannot do so unless I consider, for the time, being, the church purely as. a ouslness Institution. I do not apologize to you, nor to the church, for you are sensible, people and the church is stronger than all of us put together, and where there is sense and strength no quality of fact, no matter how bluntly put, can be irreverent. I need not defend advertising, for there is no department of business more exacting and more dignified, nor is there any-which requires so great an expenditure of actual brain force. The first advertisement was produced with the writing of the first chapter of Genesis. BIBLE AN ADVERTISEMENT. "The Bible Is the grandest, the most exhaustive, the most sensible and the most effective advertisement that was ever presented. From the first to the last chapter it is one glorious advertisement of the advantages cf morality, goodness and religion. Along the line of Bible argument ono finds the most beautifully written, the most emphatic and the most glowing descriptions of the magnificence of heaven and of the myriads of attractions for the benefit of the blest. An advertisement, to be anything, must be descriptive. The Bible is descriptive. An advertisement, to be effective, must have in it unanswerable argument. . The infidels of the world have never been able to prove that biblical advertisements exaggerate one particle. The advertisement of strength must recognize competiticn. The Bible has allowed the devil to present his alleged advantages. Holy Writ hag ( ordered every man to preach the gospel and to advertise salvation. The Creator originated tverythliifc and he originated advertising. The only advertis-ements good for anything are modeled after Bible argument. Throw all the bread of America into a cavern, close up tho cavern and ycur bread might just as well be bricks. Pile this bread into a storehouse that you can get into and tell people where tho storehouse is and tne good ot it does good. It is the connection between the gcod and the user of g od that gives value to' the gcod. Advertising is the orly thing which can make this cornection. If it were no for advertising there wouldn't bo an., social union. The day has arrived for church people not to be a people, tut to be the people. I have no smpathy for those few church people who believe that religion must be kept sealed inside the peculiarly constructed walls of stone or brick. M can see no reason why the brains of the world should be given to the proper present itlon of commercial eorr.rv.cditles, end religion be handled as an outside Iss le, apparently exempt from the laws of man. Let me paint a picture and let me hold It up before you. Not far from here is a gilded building blazing with colored lights. Ad is brightness there. On each side of the entrance are beautiful pictures. All along the walls are photographs, so hung that the best light falls upon them. In every window in the city arc other pictuies. In every newspaper a large advertisement. There is a show to-night in that building, and a good show, perhaps. The auditorium is crowded. Why? Because the man at the head of that establishment not only had a good thing, but knew enough to tell the people that he had it. AcroM the street is a little, dingy buiidirg a few windows, with more painted faces of the .actresses opposite. a. mtie neint fctruggks through. Cobwebs ;re on th raff if One gas Jet lights the vestibule. There's a sign up somewhere, perhaps on the inside, perhaps on th outside. It says, Meeting To-night. Come in. The man inside preaches to a nanutui or people, works himself up into what he calls relig ious jage and condemns the man acnx3 the street because he has an audience. 1 do not mean to say that everybody in that theater can be made to go to church, even if tho church were a volcano of light, but the churhea that have U6ed legitimate business methods have been the churches that have succeeded. , WHY SOME CHURCHES FAIL. "The churches that have stood on that dignity, .which isn't dignity, and have worked themselves up into bellevelng that religion isn't business and cannot be handled as business, are the churches that could drop down into the hole of an earthquake without even the people who went down with them knowing anything had happened. The little advertisement of the church among religious notices unloubtedly doe3 good, but where is the business man that will advertise a millinery opening in arjy such style? 'First Methodist Church, Hew John Smith will preach at 10:30 and 8:15. Strangers welcome.' There's nothing about an advertisement like that to make peoole want to hear John Smith, l v.oum not "advise advertising churches as I w ould advertise a circus, but I wouM put something In tho advertisement which would make peopie think that the religion dispensed at such and such a church Is the kind of religion the people want. I would FURRtst that the glorie of the future be nalpif.l at least as attractively as commercial fashion plate?, and that th serv ices l1 anrouneod as arusucauy a are mounted the Easter bonnets in the stores of worldlv money grabbers. There is no reason why the dry goods man. the clothing man and the theaters should have the monopoly of -nace in the newspapers. It's the busliues of the church to have part of it. an I it's the bufincss of the church to pay for it. The church has no more rUM to ask for free advertising than th churchman has a right to expect that his ne'ghlor churchman will sell his horse without a commission. It's "the business of advertising to bring people to the church door. It's the buslners of the clergyman, the ushers and the people of the church to make him come in. There Is no use 1a advertising

"If your minister doesn't know how to advertise the church properly and your church deacons don't understand it. hire a man who does.

"Somebody S33-S, 'We don't want our church to be considered t a . sensational church. Some folks don't want their church to be like the Bible.

"My dear, dear old boy!,t began the effusive young man as he entered a Woodward-avenue car and slapped a middle-aged man on the back, "but I was Just thinking of you a moment ago. How do you do. anyway 7' T am well. sirT' frigidly replied the man as he turned full around. "Ah! Beg pardon for my mistake. I was certain it was my dear old friend. Colonel B." I eaid I was well replied the man who had been slapped. "Yes. I know, and I beg you to excuse me. It's the first time I ever made such, a mistake. The resemblance is wonderful." , "Did you wish to speak to me,' sir7' demanded 'the other in tones about 4S degrees below zero. "I slapped you on the back by mistake. I am sorry for it. You look like the twin brother of my old friend. Oplonel B.. ani I mistook you for him. Sorry very eorry. and I hope you'll overlook it." "Are you addressing me. sir7 came In cold and flinty tones across the car. "Yes, sir. When I came In I took you for my old friend. Colonel B... and it waa not until after I had slapped you on th back that I found out my mistake. It wa very rude of me, and I beg pardon and hope you will overlook it." "What do you wish me to overlook7' The young man got up to gx all over that speech: again, but a plumber who was about to get off took him by the arm and walked him out and dropped him on tho asphalt, and said: "Young man, you must have drank one too many cocktails. That's old Colonel 11. himself you've been talking to ail this time." . ' Tornado S offerers In Distress. NEWTON. Kan.. May 7. The twenty-five families rendered homeless by lat Wednesday's tornado are badly In need of r.elp. The committees have been at work in Harvey and adjoining counties, but the returns are not sufficient to fill the requirements of the sufferers. It is expected, however, that in a day or so more supplies will come in, and that the needy will be relieved. Resolutions have been passed by a mass meeting asking the County Commissioners to make an additional appropriation of the funds of the county to aid the sufferers. It is probable that about one-fifth of the destroyed property will be restored to the losers by the charitable of the county. Tne Minor Woman Rented Them. Last night Sergeants Hyland and Crana went through the rooms over the Thistle saloon, on South Illinois street, and found P. S. Sims and Clara Thomas occupying one of them. Sims is fifty years of age and the woman thirty-four.' They trlid to make it appear that they were married, but when separated and asked concerning the time and place of their marriage their storis were quite differ nt and they era ...octa fnr vtsitinir a disreDutable house. At tho police station tho woman ackiowledged that tney were noi uiainuu. -wi said that Sims has a wife and four children in Cincinnati, and that she is a married woman herself. She sail they wete on their way to Chicago, having only arrived in this city last night. The 'oom$ where they were found are run by Minnie Minor, whom Superintendent Powell had ordered to cease running such a place. Sna has been renting the room through a man who leased them in his own name and let her have them, she paying the rent, in this way she escaped the detection of .he polico until a short time ago the owner of the property sued for possession of the rooms, when it became apparent that the Minor woman was renting them.
