PHILADELPHIA, PA.

In answer to the item in the Sulli-
van Star of May 18th, about the tru-
ant husband and searching wife, the
writer thinks that it deserves the
applause of the public as it certainly
was Il fine piece of fiction and the
composers are quite capable of com
peting with A. Conan Doyle, or IIali
Standish.
The writer wishes to thank them
for giving him credit for ever being
human, for if ne had starved her,
or sent her to an insane asylum he
might have been called inhuman
instead. We also think that the
word vulture wrongly applied, a,
they feed on the dead only.
Now as to his delicate wife, in
less tnan six months after their mar,
rige she left the place provided for
her, unknown to her husband while
he was visiting a sick sister, and
when he returned found her gone.
she gave no reasons for going away
but soon afterward applied for a
divorce but having no sufficient rea
sons, her attorneys wrote to him
asking him for evidence. Before
they received an answer they came
to see him and asked him to support
her. He made two conditional Off
ers which were refused. She told
that she expected to get money,
having heard he had business at
that place and thought he could pay
we'll to haze her go away and keep
still.

Phvsician Discovers That Acid Will
Increase a Mans Strength
Fivefold.

London.-The food of the gods ap-

According to report of tests made
by DR.. Clement and Dr.. Huchard, for
mic acid can increase the strength of
people in an extraordinary manner.
One delicate subject who could only
raise a light weight was, after being
experimental upon, able to lift five
times the amount
DR.. Huchard's experiment upon him
self is decidedly interesting. In two
days, it is said, he doubled his
strength, and in five days trebled it.
To achieve this he had taken five
grammes.
Formic acid is a colorless liquid
found in the bodies Of ants, in the
hairs of certain caterpillars, and in
nettles. 1t has a pungent smell, is
highly corrosive and may be prepared
artificially in many different ways.
Formic acid and all its salts are
strong reducing agents, and precipi-
tate metal from solutions of gold, sill

Lapore, 1nd.-The stork has been
selected as the emblem of a unique
organization at Wanatah, and appeal
will be made to President Roosevelt for
motto which can be fittingly asso-

which is to popularize Roosevelt's ideas
on the race question. The organization

so we'll defined as to the objects of the

LUXURY FOR AN OLD HORSE
After Thirty-Two Years. Fire serv-
ice, Country Club Adopts Him
Ladies Aid His Cause.

Wilkesbarre, Pa..-Old Tom, a
United States Express company horse,
which society folk of this city had re-
tired on full feed after 80 years of
service, has become life member of
the Country club, having been pre-
sented by Henry Platt. son of Senator
Thomas G. Platt of New York.
Old Tom was fire horse in New
York city, and then for many years
served the route along the fashionable
streets Of this city and by his intelli-
gence won many friends.
A year ago several ladies interested
themselves in his case and induced the
company to retire him. Since then he
has been living in fine box stall on a
New Jersey stock farm. The salt air
did not agree with him, however, and
he pined for the sweet air of this VAL
ley.
Henry Platt thereupon bought him
from the company and he arrived here
and was installed at the Country club.
There he will spend the rest of his
days on the broad acres of that or
ganization, having just enough exer-
else to keep him in good condition.

PLANT IS SWALLOWED UP.
Earth Opens Near Joplin, NO., and
Mining Works Disappear in
Enormous Hole.

Joplin, Mo-The earth literally
opened and swallowed the $4,000 min
ing plant of the Holy Smoke, on the
Ayler land south of Carterville, reduc-
ing that mill to kindling wood and half
burying' the debris 100 feet below the
surface. The $4,000 contracting ore

so seriously threatened by an extension
Of the cave-in that it is being rapidly
dismantled.
The hole in which the Holy Smoke
mill went down is 400 feet broad and 100
feet deep, with a capacity of 100000
cubic feet of earth
Fifteen men at work in the under
ground drifts were warned by the
groaning of the earth and escaped an
hour before the final crash came.
State Mine Inspector Ragland is
aroused by this and another disastrous
cave-ina short time ago under the tracks
of two railroads in Joplin, and declares
that radical change in the cave system
Of zinc mining must soon come about.

as the federal government, are awake
fully to the disgraceful wastefulness Of

Thousands Of square miles of forest
