because no one can tell what is likely 20
be done in the matter of adopting or
rejecting our recommendations fer al
terations in the phraseology of the
confession of faith. Personally, do
not think the recommendations of the
committee on creed revision, if accepted
by the Presbyterian church, would mean
any change in our dogmas. The rec
concentrations attempt only to explain
some points of faith that are not fully
understood and emphasize others that
are inadequately appreciated.

INTERESTING DEVELOPMENTS

Made I'm the Willie Mccormick Kid
mapping Case, Yesterday.
WASHINGTON. April 28.-The de-
tectives engaged in working on the
Willie Mccormick Kidnapping case,
continued their Investigations to-day.
Several features have developed which
are regarded as possibly significant. In
addition to the slip of paper bearing the
name of Gertrude, the detectives believe
they have another article which will
emphasize the importance of the origi-
nal clew. A pen was given to Photo
grapher Kemethy on Friday week ago
by one of the gypsy girls under arrest
at that time and which she says was
wrapped I'm the paper when she found
it in the horse bazaar. 1t was turned
over to Inspector Boardman tonight
and ny him given to Detective OConnel
who sent it with the slip of paper con-
tanning the name to New York. For
some reason Chief Titus telegraphed an
order to send the slip of paper back. 1t
is suggested that he may have done this
to let the teacher who instructed Ger
trude Mccormick at school have a
chance to identify the writing which
the little girl herself already has iden-
titled. A tracing was made of the writ
ing on the slip of paper in New York
when it was sent there first by Photog-
rapher Kemethy, and it is said that
Gertrude's teacher almost positively
identified the figures on the reverse as
a portion of an arithmetical example,
which she gave the child to work.
1t was reported tonight that another
rather significant incident was said to
have been unearthed by the detectives
which may have some relation to the
case. This was to the effect that late
Friday night, while the two gypsy
girls were at the house of detention, an
uncle of theirs went to a telegraph Of
fee and sent long dispatch to some
point in New Jersey. The gypsy wait
ed two hours for reply, and boy
who saw the dispatch is said to have
told the detectives that it read:
impossible. You must wait a
while"
What the question asked in the dis
patch was is now worrying the de-
tectives.

camps to-day and found one boy whom

OF poultry for the use of Hebrew families
as IN the killing of beef Hundreds of

their trade
Some of these have a slaushterh,s es-
adjustment of their own, keeping a sho-
chet regularly employed and also a rabbi
or examiner authorized to attach the seal

try was lawful. The more general usage Is
Tor the individual to buy a coop of live
birds and lodge them at the public slaugh-
ter house TO be killed at a cent a head af-
ter the manner prescribed and according
as he needs them.
At the Gouverneur slip slaughter tier
upon tier of padlocked cages on the diffe--
ent floors are leased out to the small
poultry dealers for this purpose, much as
boxes in the postoffice or boxes In this
deposit vaults are rented to customers. Az
this place ls,0oo head of fattened stock q

sichets at SIS week are on the staff OF
employees.

swung by the legs from hook overhang-
ing trough. The gulet and windpipe are
severed by a special blade exactly as In
the case OF steers, The knives are kept
stepped up TO the handles in a solution of

the Schechitah has been lawfully perform

TWO MORE GUSHERS
Brought i'm in the Texas Oil Field
Yesterday.

teSteruaN
BEAUMONT, Texas, April 2S.-Two
more oil gushers were brought in here
to-day. The first is on what is known
as the Gladys City property, which Is
owned by the J. M. Guffy Company. 1t
is close to the other gushers. 1t was
permitted to spout only few minutes
when, after proving itself the equal of
any of the others, the valve was clos
ed and the flow stopped. The other
well, which reached the oil vein, is of
importance chiefly because it widens
the oil circuit, being fuptnest from the
original Lucas gusher.
The rumor that the Standard Oil
Company has purchased the property
of the Port Arthur Land Company is
fully believed here. There are 10000
acres in the tract and the price. az.
cording to reports, was s25 and acre,
making the transaction one of $780,
600.
This sale does not include the wharf
frontage of Port Arthur.

JORDAN'S ANGEL.

She was the bright particular star of
the valley settlement. which was COM
posed of a couple of hundred souls,
among whom her father was the lead
ing spirit. He was known as Judge
Jordan" Everyone in the valley knew
that Henry Jordan was not an ordi-
nary man, and that choice had not driv-
en- hi mand Janette to seek a home
in a cabin away off from scenes and
conditions in strange contrast to that
which they had been accustomed else
where.
They were educated, refined, and the
little belongings they had brought
with them told of far different life
than that Of pioneers in a wilderness.
But of the past neither ever spoke, and
If they carried a skeleton in their hearts
it was never revealed to others.
From the starting Of the wagon train
of settlers westward over the long trail
full or dangers and hardships, Judge"
Jordan had been the life of the party,
and Janette had won the hearts Of
young and old alike.
When danger had come, in the shape
of Indian attacks, she had shown a
pluck that made every man do his duty,
and it was not to be wondered at that
the young men, one and all, hoped to
be the one to win her as bride.
When the cabins were built and the
crops all in, Janette was glad to ac-
cept the position as teacher for the
little children, but soon found that
number of the young men We're includ-
ed as her pupils.
One day while hunting deer, a few
miles from the settlement, for she was
fond of the sport, she came suddenly
upon an Indian standing at bay, wound
ed severely, yet bravely fighting two
white men, who sought his life.
The white men she had never seen
before, and they were very hard look
ing pair of citizens; but hers was ma
ture to aid the under dog and she chip
ped in, had her little say and saved the
Indian. a young Sioux chief, but not
until she had drawn her gun upon his
enemies and forced them to relinquish
their game.

had been killed. Janette aided him to
mount her horse, and leading the way
on foot, she soon had him safe in her
fathers home, where his wounds were
cared for by the settlement doctor.
This young chief rejoiced in the name
of Evil Eye, and his father was the
head Sachem of his tribe and very
good hater of all pale faces. The young
men swore vigorously that Evil Eye
was we'll able to return to the tepees Of
his fathers long before he made any eff
fort to do so; but the young chief lin
gered for long time in his pleasant
quarters. accepting the kind care of his
fair rescuer. When he left, some very
vigorous profanity followed him, and
his going precipitaed a score of pro-
posals from Janette's lovers, all Of
which were declined with thanks and
many regrets that she had to make it q
case of unregretted love.
AS all were in the same boat, no duels
followed and each lover vowed to make
