The people of Greensburg are very much wrought up over what seems to be the murder of an unknown woman In murder of Pearl Bryan is recalled with all its grewsome details. The most astonishing fact about the case Is that the body has not been located. The wearing apparel consisting of a fancy dress, and shoes were found in an out building. The names of the maker , and the dealer have been removed which makes the mystery all the greater. The whole city Is on guard, and every effort will be made to find the owner of the clothes and the perpetrator of the alleged crime.'' Recent successes In the art of sky ailing have stimulated the toy designers, and already there are a number 'of . flying-machine toys to amuse the children.

ONE IN THREE very Third Person Coffee. Poisoned by It is difficult to make people believe that coffee is an absolute poison to at least one person out of every three, but people are slowly finding.it out, although thousands of them suffer terribly before they discover the fact. A New, York hotel man says: "Each time after drinking coffee I became restless, nervous' and excited, to that I was unable to sit fire minutes in one place, was also inclined to vomit and suffered from loss of sleep, which got worse and worse, "A lady said that perhaps coffee waa the cause of my trouble, and suggested tbn. I try Postum. I laughed at the thought that coffee hurt me, but she insisted so hard that I finally bad some Postum made. I have been using It In place of coffee ever since, for I noticed that all my former nervousness and Irritation disappeared. I began to sleep perfectly, and the Postum tasted as good or better than the old coffer, so what was the use of sticking to a beverage that ruining me? "One day on an excursion up the

HARRIMAN AFTER A VIRGINIA ROAD May Capture Virginian Railroad Because of Death Of H. H. Rogers. WILL EXTEND THE LINE IT 18 PLANNED TO HAVE IT MAKE DIRECT CONNECTIONS WITH THE ROAD CONSTRUCTED BY JOSEPH RAMSEY. Pittsburg, Pa., May 22. That E. H. Harriman and his associates will se cure control of the Virginian' Railroad on account of the death of II. H. Rog ers, who built the road at a cost of more than $40,000,000, is reported in local railroad and financial circles. The line is to be extended to point near Port Pleasant on the Ohio River, where direct connection is to be made with the road built by Joseph Ramsey, Jr., ; former president of the Wabash, giving an entirely new line from the lakes, through Ohio, West Virginia, and Virginia to the Atlantic seaboard. It is known that Engineers for some time past have been work ing on plans to connect the Ramsey road with the Virginian. Left the Wabash. When Mr. Ramsey severed his con nection with the Wabash, he organized a company and built the Lorain and Ashland road from Lorain to a point near Wellington, Ohio. He then or ganized a second company which is building the Ashland & Southern railroad from the Southern terminus of the first named road to the Ohio river. Some time ago these two com panies were merged and the Ranwey holdings are now known as the Lorain Ashland & Southern railroad. P.

DIVORCE SHAMES GREAT AMERICAN IIATI0I1 HE SAYS

Chairman of Presbyterian " Committee on Marriage Produces Figures Which Show Growth of the Evil. THINK FAMILY LIFE ' IS MOW THREATENED Jealousy of the States Is Assigned as the Cause Why No National Law Is Passed To Remedy Condition. Denver, - May 22. Sunday amuse ments, the abolition of divorce and the urgency of religious education were the subjects descussed by the general assembly of the Presbyterian church yesterday. Two other subjects which threatened to cause much parliamentary con flict, the report of the executive commission and the report of the committee on administrative agencies, were brought before the assembly by Dr. D. Moffatt. president of the Washing ton and Jefferson college, or Pittsburg and by former Moderator Dr. B. P.-Pullerton. of St. Louis. Dr. Moffatt predicted that this ses sion would see the adoption of a plan whereby the eight administrative boards of the church would to a large degree be consolidated. The com mittee on administrative agencies, of which he is chairman, has recom mended that each board seek legal ad vice as to its possible powers. It has been a subject of comment in the church that the adimnistrative author ity has been too much scattered, and it has been the work of the commit tee on admnllstrative agencies to for mulate a plan for consolidation. The subject was made a special order for Monday afternoon. Census Surprises. The report of the committee on marriage and divorce said in part: "The census tells a story that sur prises the people and shames a Chris tian nation. Although It is a fact to be deplored that the scandal and sin and sorrow resulting from the laxity of law that makes divorce and speedy remarriage possible show sad and shameful continuance and that the efforts to resist and lessen these evils that threaten the permanence and pur ity of the family life, the stability of the state and the life and power of the church seem unavailing. "There Is a strong sentiment against the enactment of a national law regulating marriage and divorce, owing to the jealously of states to pre serve their rights, but the states should seek the closest possible uni formity and secure the least possible perplexity and the best results for the purity of our people and for the peace and prosperity of our Christian nation. "We submit the following statictlcs In 1887 the total number of divorces granted was 27,918 and in 1906 72,062. The total number granted in 20 years was 945,625. Certain of the states granted divorces as follows: Pennsylvania, 1887, 1,097 divorces, and in 1906 3,027; New York, In 1887. 1,042 dlvor ces and 2,069 in 1906; North Dakota, 57 in 1887 and 320 in 1906; Ohio, 2,003 in 1887 and 4.781 in 1906; Ken tucky, 949 in 1887 and 2,050 in 1906; Illinois, 2,663 in 1887 and 5,943 in 1906; Massachusetts, 752 in 1887 and 1.540 in 1906 and Virginia, 305 in 1887 and 1.074 in 1906.' No Vice Moderator. The report of the executive committee was championed by Dr. Pullerton, who, as moderator of the last assembly, was exofficio chairman of the committee. At his suggestion this report, as well as others, were printed for the information . of the commissioners. : The report on religious education was discussed informally at the preassembly conference of the university and college workers, but was not officially submitted until yesterday. The selection of a vice moderator was not announced. It is believed Judge Charles S. Holt, of Chicago, will receive the appointment.

A BETTER SEV7ER

SYSTEM DESIRED BY WEST SIDEflS They Allege Sewers Do Not Deposit Into the River, But Dump Refuse on Tops of The River Banks. EXISTING CONDITION IS VERY UNSANITARY West Richmond Improvement Association Held Its Monthly Meeting Last Night and Discussed Matters. That the sewers draining West Rich mond, which are supposed to .empty in to the river, but allow the refuse to run down from the top of the banks. should be remedied, and the surround ings, made a little more attractive and sanitary, is the general opinion of the members of the West . Richmond Im-1 provement association, which organization met in regular monthly session last evening. 1 i The organization will no doubt start a crusade on these sewers ana Keep it up until something is done to remedy matters. There are at least a half dosen sewers on the west side which do not empty their refuse directly Into the river, but instead deposit it at the top of the river banks. The refuse of each sewer spreads over much territo ry and leaves it swampy and an excellent breeding place for mosquitos and other germ-carry pests. ' Could Make Extension. The association feels that these con ditions could be remedied much the same as they have in other places. An extension could be easily made which would drain the sewage directly into the river. The members also discussed the mat ter of improving the river bank be tween the Main street and Pennsylva nia railroad bridges and converting the place into a park. Even if this territory is not converted into a park, west side people want it to be made more attractive. The association will proceed to push the matter of the erection of a west side hose house. The members ex pressed much pleasure at the action1 of council in purchasing the site and now hope that money will be apprprlated immediately for the building, and to purchase equipment for Hose company No. 5. Vi WILL ENTERTAIN To Be Hosts to Several Visiting Delegations.

As the heated air at the equator rises the cooler air from the north and south poles flows In to take Its place, and these atmospheric currents flowing from- the north and south poles toward the equator constitute what are called the trade winds. The trades are of varying force, their strength depending entirely upon the difference la temperature between the equator and the pole. The greater the difference the stronger the wind.
