Il have been visiting relations in the

several weeks, and Mr.. Vaulter hasn't
been out of England for many months"
Needless to say, the mystitied American
made a point of calling upon the Vault
ers at their pleasant apartment over
looking Hyde Park. OF course they
were out. 'Out of town." No, sir:
in town, but not at 'Ome." A letter
with London postmark and an En-
gliSh stamp brings excellent evidence
that they were in town very few days
after this fruitless call; but it does not
account for the striking resemblance to
Vaufter of the gentleman in Broadway,
nor for his appropriate replies to the
questions OF his puzzled interlocutor,
who is now strongly inclined to think
this is "a case for the Society for Psy-
ehical Research"

CHOKED TO DEATH.
A Young Girl Murdered by an I'm
known Person on Long Island.

GLENDALE, L. l., Aug. 40 add to
Long Islands already long list of
crimes, another mysterious murder was
revealed in this village to-day that will
probably, like many more, never be
solved. The victim this time is a
pretty young woman about twenty
years of age, with dark hair and eyes
and petite figure. The horrible crime
was discovered about O'Clock this
morning by man who was
picking blackberries in the swamps
near the village. The body
was found near new dwelling in
course of construction. A more lonely
spot could not be found along Long
Island. The marks of finger and thumb
nail on the throat of the girl left
no doubt but that she had been
murdered by being choked to death.
The skin of the neck bore five abrasions,
and Oh the left side of the throat the
nails of four fingers had cut into it.
and the thumb nail had penetrated
the skin on the right side. The
vital organs were in normal condition.
The clothing of the girl was in perfect
order when the body was discovered,
and there was nothing to denote that
struggle had taken place. Hundreds
have seen the dead girl to-day, but none
know her

Only about five days ago it was noticed
by lumbermen that the tops of the

turning brown, as though the trees were
dying. The trees looked as if they had
gone through forest fire. An lnvesti-

that the affected trees were covered with

OUTRAGED SENTIMENT.
Nothing So Terrible as the People
When Aroused.

Rev. c. B. Wilcox, of the First Metho-
dist church, preached to large congre-
CATION last evening. His text was from
the twenty-third verse of the thirty
second chapter of the Book of Num-
bers, ''Be sure your sin will find YOU
out" The reverend gentleman in his
remarks said:
''Sin before it is committed presents a
gilded appearance. Our first parents
looked upon sin, and it was inviting.
that they had been basely cheated. We
are allured by the glitterlng of SIN and
pursue the siren; but no sooner is sin
committed than it turns about and pur-
sues the perpetrator. Be sure your sin
will follow YOU"
The speaker referred to Biblical in
stances, among which he eloquently re-
lated how Joseph was sold by his broth
erS, and how seventeen years afterWard
they went down into Egypt to buy corn,
and after being thrown into prison,
learned that their brother was the
prime minister of that country.
Gods administration is perfect" con-
tinued he. ''Men legislated against
crime, but, as with all human doings,
| the work is never perfect. In the
COuC vi lIIO AlilfSHLy lu6T6 are
offenses per Sc which human laws
fail to cover; and you may be sure that
some time in Gods administration every
| right act will be rewarded and every
wrong punished.
There is no good which can come
out of life of sin. In the forest there
is crash. The mighty tree has fallen.
1t was so grand and powerful that the
spectator is shocked by its downfall.
| Twenty years ago down the great trunk
| of the monarch cash was cut. There
was little leaf in the forks above

low. By and by the terrible

MISTAKEN IDENTITY.
A Curious Story That Admits o
Several Different Explanations

A Curious Story That Admits of
Several Different Explanations.
A rather puzzling experience has just
been related to me. A man who was
going abroad last month met i'll Broad
way, the day before he sailed, an En-
glishman whom he believed to be in
London, and whom he expected to see
when he reached that city. As soon as
he saw him he said to himself: ''Hello,
th ere's Vaulter," or words to that eff
feet. the real name being immaterlal to
the story. The two men not old
friends, but acquaintance on very
friendly terms-seemed glad to see each
other, stopped and shook hands. The
American had a moments miSgivlng as
to the identity of his vis-a-vis, but it dis
appeared under the reassurlng influence
of the replies his questions drew forth
sWhen did you get here?" he asked.
Last Wednesday" was his answer
Wednesday being one of the days OH
which the fast steamers arrive from
England. SIS your wife with. yOu?"

very sorry to miss you," was the polite
response. "By the way" exclaimed
the American, 'where is Mrs. -?
She was to be in London now, and |
had expected to learn her address from
you." The name mentioned was that of a
well-knoWn American writer whose cou-
sin the Englishman had married. "She is
down in the country visiting some of
her relations" After exchanging few
more words the two men shook hands
again, smiled, touched their hats and
parted.
On arriving at his Office five minutes
later the American dropped line to
the son of the lady whose exact where
abouts he had neglected to ascertain
from his English friend, and by return
of post receivee an address in Charges

added the young man. ''is pure abra-

Thoughtful and Conservative

''The Relation of Law to Character

Wallace II. Butrick's sermon at the
First Baptist church last evening. The
customary prelude was omitted, as he
said the events of the week did not
necessitate any special comment; and
his discourse was without anything
more than general application to the
spiritual welfare of the citizens of st.

eternal principles of law. Human

From the promiscuouS life OF primitive

They should enforce the laws against
the social evil, not because forbidden by
the church, but for the good of the
country and the preservation of the
health of its people. The law against
gambling should be enforced, not be-
cause it would curtail the privileges of
anybody, but because it is a destroyer
of character and Subversive of ali

bath should not be prevented because of
any Puritanical ideas, but because it is
grounded on an eternal principle, which
has been demonstrated in the immuta-
BILE law of God.
