MS friends and parishioners, two sets
OF detectives and his brother have
searched for eighteen months but have
found no trace of him. Judge Selden
spencer, the postofice department, the
Presbytery of st. Louis and all the
agencies of the police have been en-
ployed to locate the minister. Only
one faint clue to even the direction of
his flight has ever been discovered. He
dropped off the earth, fed into Oblivion

mothers face has been lined by deep
wrinkles; her mothers hair is white as
snow; the blinds of their Benton home

mother nor sisters go anywhere. Those
VINO loved her have no part in the
gayeties of the suburb-they are clois-
tered by their sorrow; they shrink
from the tongue of gossip. Hundreds

Paducah Surrounded i.

Paducah, Ky, March 1.-THE city
OF Paducah is now an island. High
water entirely surrounds the town.
The Ohio is now within few inches
Of the As foot mark and is over seven
feet beyond the danger line. This
is the highest point reached in years.
Miles of lowlands are under watt r
on both the Kentucky aud Illinois
shores, and hundreds in and near
this city are now homeless. Streets
IN the business part of Paducah are
flooded. One suburb was washed
entirely away, and many houses in
the bottoms below here are in dan
ger. The rain which is falling to day
increases the dismal aspect of the
situation, and fears of more destruc.

One Of the Soldiers Who Inferred LincoIn's
Assassin Dies.
Indianapolis, Ind, March 49,
Heart disease caused the sudden
death of John Parshall, aged IS, OF
this city. He leaves a widow, but
no family. He was a carpenter by
trade and an old soldier. He was q
member of the Alexander expedition,
sent to Salt Lake City to force Brig.
ham Young to Yacate his Office and
allow the successor whom President
Buchanan had appointed to take his
seat. Parshall was the driver of one
of the ammunition wagons. and with
his own hands burst open an iron
gate which Was preventing the en-
trance of the army into the Nor
mons capital.
He was also one of the six men
who disposed of the body of John
Wilkes Booth, the assassin of Abra
ham Lincoln. Parshall attended the
performance at Ford's theater, saw
fatal shot fired and was one of the
soldiers who pursued the assassin
through the wings to the stage door
When the murderer was finally shot
and taken, Parshall was one Of the
six men deputed to dispose of his
remains in such a manner that the
secret of their resting place should
never be known. They were sworn
never to reveal their secret. Parshall
was the fifth, so far as known of the
men to die, and he has steadfastly
kept his oath.

Athens, March IA declaration
of war by Greece against Turkey
seems to be the only way out Of the

before the close Of the day.
At prolonged meeting of the
Ca binet, the Ministers discussed at
great length the attitude to be taken
In the event Of the powes attempting
to coerce Greece into compliance
with their demands.
1t is stated that no disposition
was shown to accede to The demands
and that it was finally decided to
take ''active measures as the onIy
possible solution of the difficulty.
active measures can only mean
a declaration of war against Turkey,
which would give the right to
Greece to maintain her army in Crete
and deprive the powers of any right
of interference.

mentarily expected to leave Athens

FREIGHT RATE BILL DEAD.
Missouri Senate Kills Two Railroad Bills
With One Stone.

WIN VIC SiViC'
Jefferson City, Mo, March IS
1t has been evident for some time
that the Senate did not intend to
pass the Farris freight bill or the 2
cent passenger bill. and it was a
surprise to no one when the senate
this afternoon took up the freight
bill and killed it. This bill provides
tor reduction of 25 per ceut on
what are what are now legal rates on
live stock and farm products. These
rates We're established in 1875. and
railroad men say that since that time
freight rates have been reduced SO
per cent, and that instead of provid-
ing for a reduction the bill really
raised the rates about 25 per cent.
The railroad men, however. know
that the board of railroad commits
sioners would never allow the rates
to be raised, and they would rather
have the legal rate as it is now. so
they were opposed to the bill.
The senate has been engaged On
the appropriation bill all day and it
was late this afternoon when the bill
came up for consideration. There
was lively discussion, although it
was foregone conclusion that the
bull would not pass. Senators Brew
ster, Powers, Goodykoontz and
others spoke against the bill and
Senators Majors and Childers de-
tended 1T, Finally Senator Brewster
moved that the bill be indefinitely
postponed and the motion carried by
q vote Of 21 to IL.

What use is there in eating when
food does you no good-in fact, when
it does you more harm than good,
for such is the case if it is not di-
gested!
If you have a loathing for food
there is no use forcing it down, for
it will not be digested. You must
restore the digestive organs to their
natural strength and cause the food
to be digested, when an appetite will
come, and with it relish for food:
The tired, languid feeling will give
place to vigor and energy; then you
will put flesh on your bones and be-
come strong. The Shaker Digestive
Cordial as made by the Mount Leb-

digested and is digester of foods
as well. Its action is prompt and it's
