THE ROAMING PRESIDENT.
Roosevelt Turned Up Yesterday i'll
Montana i'm Fine Condition.

Cinnabar, Mont, April 16.-President
Roosevelt came into Fort Yellowstone
today appearing in splendid condition
and enthusiastic over the good time he
mas had Secretary Loeb met him at
Major Hitcher's headquarters and the
two transacted some routine business,
the first the president has done with
his secretary since he went into the
park. After his return from his visit
to the president Secretary loeb issued
the following statement.
major Hitcher reports that the pres
ident and his party ave just returned
from their eight day horse back trip in
the north of the park and along the
Yellowstone. The party consisted OF
the president, Major Hitcher, Mr.. John
Burroughs, with an orderly, the scouts
and the packers with the mule train.
All of the marty are in excellent health
and. not an accident of any kind oc-
Cured.
On entering the park the president in
formed Major Hitcher that he would
not under any circumstances fire a shot
at anything while in the park and
he took neither rifle nor shot gun with
him.. The party had some good fishing
and the president and Mr.. Burroughs
spent a large part of their time in fol-
lowing and watching at close quarters
the great herds of game, chiefly elk, but
also mountain sheep, deer and antelope.
The party will start tomorrow for the
interior of the park to visit the gey-
SerS and perhaps the falls of the yell
lowstone. They will go in sleighs, on
horse back or on skis, according to the
condition of the snow.

Anxiety ut Joplin.

Joplin, Mo-, April Let was feared
all day that the mob, which last night
lynched a tramp negro here, burned
the homes of negroes and ran almost
every negro out of Joplin, would re-
sumo the depredations tonight. Mayor
Trigg issued a proclamation today call
ing a meeting of good citizens to or
ganize five hundred vigilants for pres
ervation Of order in the city.
This was done and although throngs
began to fill the streets by night fall,
there was no sign of disorder.
The excitement is still intense but
it is believed the mayors action has
quoted effectively any desire to con-
tinue the rioting.

Goldsboro, N. c., April ia case is
reported here from Smitheld this morn
ing which resembles in mystery the
famous Cropsey case at Elizabeth City.
A young lady, between Ii and IA years
old, disappeared from her home early
this morning and no trace of her has
been seen since. A point of difference
between this and the Cropsey case is
that this young ladv left a note for her
father. stating that he would never See
her again.
The first information of the strange
disappearance of the young lady came
in the form of a telephone message to
Capt. ]. c. Collier. who runs as con-
ductor on the Smithfield railroad, and
who is we'll acquainted with the young
lady. The message stated that Miss
Mildred Saunders, daughter of Mr.. w.
NJ. Saunders, of Smithfield, had left
home mysteriously this morning and
asked Captain Collier to give the police
a description of the young lady and
keep a lookout for her. The police were
notified n began a search for the
missing young lady.
In the meantime friends of the Saun-
derS famli- IN this city were notified
of the occurrence by the distressed
father n a number of people were
put to looking for a young lady wear
ing a red skirt, light waist and tan
Jacket. She also wore glasses when
she left home. Up to the present no
one has been rewarded with even the
slightest clue. which would lead to the
discovery of the whereabouts of the
missing daughter.
Captain w. c. Pollock, of the South
ern railway train which arrived here at
1910 this afternoon, was notified at
Selma to lookout for the young lady.
A number of neople met the Southern
train, expecting to find the girl or at
least learn she had been found, but all
were disappointed. Captain Pollock
said that he was told in Selma that the
young lady arose this morning while
her father was off down street and that
she wrote a note and left it with the
cook to give to her father when he re-
turned home. She left the house after
giving the cook the note and has not
been seen since. When her father re-
tured to breakfast he learned the sad
contents CT the note, which did not as
sign any reason for taking a step, the
shines of which, up to this time, has
not been determined. Captain Pollock
also stated that he was Informed that
the young lady had been a sufferer from
trouble with her eyes for some time
and that she a had two operations
performed for cataract within the past
two years. Whether this caused her
to lose control of her mind and take
some rash step is not known.

Terrible Tragedy at a Lake
Near Denmark, Me.
tyiIb
~
Man Throws Wife Into Water and Fol-
lows Her-Both Are Drowned.
Neighbor Saw the Deed-No Cause Can
Be Assigned.

Bangor, Me-, July 22.-News has been
received in Denmark, Me-, that a man
named Andrew MacRae threw his wife
into the lake, six miles from that town,
and then jumped in after her. Both
were drowned and as yet their bodies
have not been recovered. But little is
known of the family. They lived Sc
cluded life in a small wooden cabin near
the big lakes.
So far as is known they had had no
family quarrels and We're thought to be
fond of each other. They made scant
living from their small farm.
One of their neighbors, working in
an adjoining field at the time of the
tragedy, saw the MacRae man and
woman standing near the lake. They
appeared to be engaged in earnest, con-
versation when first noticed. After a
few minutes the man seized the woman
and hurled her into the lake and then
jumped in after her.
Before rescuers could reach the place
both had disappeared from sight. They
were middled-aged people and leave no
children.
