 years old-in the care of chamber.

 their whereabouts Is as much mys-
 tery as ever .s.
 The belief that the Rogers went to
 New York Thursday and sailed on the
 Campanla for Europe was disposed of
 today when Edwin H. Low, a steam ship agent with whom they had had
 some correspondence about booking passage telegraphed that nobody an swering to their description had sailed on the Cainpania or any of the other liners that departed on Saturday.
 The police are now working on a theory that Rogers and his wife are still In Albany or neas at hand. There is nothing to show why they should wish to abandon their children deliber- ately. On the contrary. letters found in their rooms at the hotel and the be- havlor of the older boy Rex. demon strated that up to this time the young sters were tenderlv cared for. one of these letters, evidently cherished by Mrs. Rogers, was written for the child to his mother bv some grown person In it Rex sends "loads of kisses" To day when one of the sympathetic housekeepers at the hotel wanted tc kiss Rex he declined the honor. "f never kiss anybody but my mamma" he explained.
 Both children are exceptionally at- tfnctive Strategy had 10 be used this afternoon to get Rex to leave hls baby brother Rex was taken to the Al. bnny orphan asylum. while the baby went to st.

The methods by which labor will seek to

heaval which convulsed the continent or
Europe in 1S4S may be expected. Universal
adult suffrage for men and women alike

Finally, when labor rules the world kings,
emperors, czars and MOBILES and all such
mischievous relics of the childhood of the

they have outlived their usefulness. They
belong to an older order of things, which

LONDON, December 16, 1906
When some eighteen months ago Thomas
Caradoc Kerry, a wealthy explorer from
Australia obtained a three-year lease from
the colonial Office of three uninhabited
guano- laden islands In the south Atlantic
for 1916 year. he thought that he had got
hold OF bonanza dirt cheap. But at the
present his speculation seems far more
likely to land him In Jail than to make
fortune for him. After an exhaustive po-
lice court hearing that has dragged along
for nearly two months he has been held for
seas within the jurisdiction OF the admiral
ty OF England. And indirectly it is all
owing to his covetous yearning to convert
those virgin guano heaps into cash.
The three little islands which nyriads of
sea birds have been enriching for centuries
are known as the Inaccessible, the Nightin-
gale and the Gon. They belong to tho
Tristan d Acunha group. Tristan dAcunha
itself, the parent island, is only twenty
way between the Cape OF Good Hope and
the coast OF South America, is about the
loneliest spot on the globe. But It serves
as home for some three score people to-
ward whom the colonial Office occupies the
position of species OF benevolent god
father. so when the authorities there
