THE YACHT DISAPPEARED
Together With Owners, Their Money
and Jewels and the Crew.

New York, April PA great sensa-
ton has been caused all along the
Riviera by the mysterious disappear
ance of the pleasure yacht Refine Vic
toria, says Nice dispatch to the Her.
aid.
The vessel had on board M. and Nine.
DEsmenard, the sister of the latter,
Mile. Marguerite Gourie de Refuge, and
two Sailors Lafont and Berlin
The DEsmenards were married only
month ago and were on their we'd
ding tour. They We're resident at
Cannes and made frequent excursions
on the Rene Victoria.
On April Z, the party embarked on
the yacht for Nice. Nine. D'Esmenard
carried all her jewels and her husband
had with him several thousand francs.
Since their sailing nothing has been
heard of them. They should have
reached Nice the same day. AS the
weather was magnificent no reason can
be assigned for the disappearance of
the vessel
All kinds of extraordinary stories of
murder and piracy are current, but
there is nothing to justify them be-
yond the fact that M. and Nine.
DEsmenard carried 10000 or 10000
francs in money and jewels.
A search is being carried out by the
police and the maritime authorities all
along the coast.

WHY IT IS SO.

When il is known that its power to
strengthen the system and build up
the body is why Father Johns Medi-
cine cures colds and all throat and
lung troubles, it will be understood
why it is so valuable as a tonic and
for driving the impurities out of the
blood. 1t feeds the tissues and makes
strength. All disease is due to run
down condition of the body, unhealthy
tissue. Blood poisoned With impurities,
and general weakness. While we rec
ommend Father Johns Medicine for q
number of ailments-in the cure of
which it has always been successful,
as those who endorse it tell you-you
must understand and remember that
all these ills are of the same kindred
or family: that they all come from the
same source or cause. as stated above.
The principle of this medicine is sim
pie. 1t furnishes the food that the
body requires, and strengthens each
organ so that it can do it's work-tha t
how the system is cleared of the
Impurities and poisonous waste mat
ter. and it supplies bodily warmth
and vitality. Its ingredients are
the same kind of food and nourish-
merit that blood and tissue are made
of--pure and wholesome.

for a prisoner who had been invited to
spend the next four months with him.
On Tuesday, Patrick Murphy Of that

assault on two women, knocking one
down and beating and bruising the
other. Murphy was found guilty by
Trial Justice George w. Stearns and
sentenced TO pay fine of $40 and costs
and 80 days i'm Jail in each case. In de-
