oovery at Auckland, New Zealand, was
reported in THE SUN Of May II, has re-
turned to the United States. His exact
whereabouts is not known, even to his
family and the few friends who have in
terested themselves in his behalf. The
general belief is, however, that he is still
in San Francisco. where no is said to have
landed from a South American steamer
on June 27. At least, small steamer
that reached San Francisco on that date
had one III, Adams" registered on its pas
senger list as from New Zealand.
An odd thing il that another steamer
which reached port the Wednesday follow
ing had "Wilfred West" tone of the aliases
assumed by Mr.. Adams> on its passenger
list. A New York priest who still retains
his faith in the convert SCOTS at the idea
that this is significant, and expresses the
belief that Mr.. Adams took passage on
the first steamer, missed it, and then
took the second boat under another
name. Still another rumor Is that the

peared cheerful when he left the city last
Wednesday and he knew no reason why
he should have killed himself. Haas

tried to dssuade him, but Haas showed a
revolver and also told Kahn that all his

The whales are killed by running the

throwing bomb-harpoon into them,
which eXplodes thirty seconds after it is
started on its deadly mission. 1t some
times takes several of these to kill the
whale. After the whale is dead they
cut off the head and let the body of the
whale go; only when they want a piece

the body. The bones in the head are the
only parts made use of IN this species
