THREE DOLLARS FOR ONE DOL
LAR REAL ESTATE IN
VESTMENT.

Vast sums of money have been made
by individuals who have bought land
in places like Paducah by the acre
and sold II by the lots A concentrs-
ton of small amounts by many indi-
viduals brings about the same result
and proportion Of profits. We are
organizing Il syndicate by which from
$500 up may be invested, and the
small interest makes as much in pro-
portion as the largest interest.
A syndicate is being formed to buy
81 acres of land on the north side OF
the Hinkleville road. in the city
limits, and within ten minutes walk
Of two car lines. The land is bought
at sl25 per acre and will sell readily
in lots at $500 per acre. only one
fourth cash is required so that s2b
investment means a 500 interest, .
sI25 investments n $500 interest and
i250 a 81 900 interest. We consider
this investment absolutely safe and
that it will pay net profit of 81 for
81 invested within three years. II
makes fine opportunity for anyone
to invest = small amount and yet get
in on the ground floor Of genuine
real estate bargain.

Several weeks ago queenswsre drum

the fact that the company wouldn'i

Emmissaries Stir I'D Superstitious Ma
tives ON Trnns-Siberian Road.
Bijsk, Tomsk, Russia, June 1S.--The
agitation among the Mongols inhabit-
ing the Altai region is increasing over
the appearance of the god Airo1 who
they beliebe will deliver them from a
foreign yoke and create an Independent
kingdom.
The Mongols are gathering in thou
sands to answer the summons of men
who are proclaiming themselves to be
the apostles of the god Airol These
men are Inspiring awe among the igno-
rant Nomads by means of an alleged
miracle carried out with the aid of
electrical and pyrotechnical devices.
These so-called apostles preach the
reincarnation of the god Airol and pre-
tend to carry from him messages to
the people, saying that he has not been
happy since he left them 200 years ago
coincident with the date of the Russian
occupation of the country.
They warn the Mongois to absdtn
from wearing white or red clothing.
these being Russian national colors,
and to wear only blue and yellow, the
national colors of Japan: urge them
to worship the sun and moon and
especially the over god, Burhan, who
is the only true god of the gods. They
also warn tne lnldDltaflIS 10 ulSCdIQ
all agricultural implements and to
keep their arms hidden in the noun
tains and elsewhere.
Many rich members of, the Kalmuck
tribe have taken up the propaganda
One Kalmuck has sacrificed $4,000 and
another $3.50 in honor of the god.
The apostles say only the elect are
eligible to the sect and the house of
any unworthy man who presents him
self will be encircled by rainbow and
will Immediately collapse
Reports from Irktuck say that dis
content among the Mongol and Kali
muck tribes is rife owing to the preach
ing of the new prophets who 1t is said
have been discovered to be Japanese
who have passed the winter in caves
In the mountain Businesses carefully
concealing their presence in the coun-
try. The strangers were received by
the inhabitants with undisguised hos
tility. The seriousness of the situa-
tlon lies in the fact that the tribes
in which the revolt is fostered inhabit
both sides of the trans-Siberian rail-
road and number many thousands of
potential fanatics and that should any
serious uprising occur 1t might inter-
fere materially with railroad commu-
nication.

st. Petersburg, June 1s.-The authort-
ties are decidedly elated over the stimuli
taneous receipt of dispatches from Rear
Admiral Without, who commands the
Russian fleet at Port Arthur, and from
Vladivostok, intimating that the fleets
at both places are in lighting trim.
Somewhat naturally the authorities
decline to disclose the means of trans
mission of Admiral Withoft's dispatch.
but the fact that the message brought
the Admirars report up to June II. in-
dicates that 1t hardly came by rum
ner through the Japanese lines. The
condition of the squadron makes 1t APP
parent that the vessels are ready to go
to sea, and If they meet the Japanese
fleet. the result will probably be a bat
tie of ironclads at sea.
A reference In the Port Arthur dis
patch to Rear Admiral Prince Ouktom-
sky disposes of the report. previously
denied by the Associated Press. that the
Prince has been deposed and executed
for disloyalty.

Your committee feels that the InterA.

New York. June Is.-Unceasina
search for over three days and nights
has resulted up to tonight In the res
covery OF ST. bodies Of victims Of thu
disaster that befell the excursion
day.
| Although more bodies probably win
be found. hopes are expressed that CONS
| paratively few bodies remain to be res
covered. There is a possibility that
when the charred hulk is brought to
the surface a considerable number OF
corpses may be found within the tan-
gied mass of wreckage which has dee
fed all the divers attempts at CONS
plete exploration.
Doubtless, too. many bodies have been
swept away by the whirling currents OF
He'll Gate and carried into the broad
waters of Long Island Sound, or out
past Sandy Hook to the open sea.
The still recorded missing tonight ID
325, but Of those many have been ac~
counted for. whose names have noa
been taken from the list and others are
among the dead whose Identification il
impossible. The vicinity OF ST..
Marks German Lutheran Church in
East Sixth Street today was the scene
of ia funerals, representing the burial
of nearly 400 bodies, almost all women
and children.
Enormous crowds thronged the
streets of the quarter and large force
of police was necessary to prevent dis.
order and keep clear passage for tha
long lines OF hearses and Carriages
Funeral services were held in no feweK
than thirty-seven churches of various
denominations.
Sixteen bodies, recovered during fha
day, were brought from the wreck TO
the temporary morgue. and at the river
and East Twenty-seyenth Street this
afternoon. So oreat was the elamor for
admission to the pier that all control
Of the crowd was lost. When the en-
trance to the pier was thrown open. 4
rush took place. during which many
persons were knocked down and trans
pied on.
Twenty-nlne of the unidentified dead
were buried today by the city In thu
Lutheran cemetery. leaving but eigh3
bodies still awaiting Identification IN
the morgue. The executive COMMITTEES
of the, Mayors relief COMMITTEES met
this afternoon at st. Marks Church and
made arrangement for the extension of
relief privately to all the needy suf-
furers by the disaster.
Mayor Mcclellan today authorised
Police Commissioner McAdoo to cons
tract with a wrecking company to raise
the hull OF the Slocum. A powerful
tug was dispatched to North Brothera
tonight with orders to raise the wrecis
as soon as possible, and to tow It to-
a shallow water Off Rikers Island
where 1t will be searched for any bodies
that may yet remain in 1t. The inves1
tigation of the coroner will begin Mons
day morning and about 200 witnessed
will be examined in an effort to place
the responsibility for the disaster.
