PATIENT ESCAPED, NURSE SLEPT
Fears for Miss Rogers of Virginia
Who Mysteriously Disappeared.

dispatch from Saranao Lake, n. Y, last
night says: The disappearance under pecu-
liar circumstances of Miss Rogers, said to
belong to a wealthy Virginia family. ana
the subsequent subpoenaeins by a local
fudge of a man who came to the Adlron-
dacks with her before he could be induced
to give desired information caused excite
ment here today.
Miss Rogers arrived In Saranac Lake on
May 80, accompanied by Willoughby N.
Smith of Baltimore, who says he Is her le-
gal representative, and Miss Janney. nurse
of Washington. D. c. They registered at
the Riverside Inn. but about a week ago
Miss Rogers and the nurse went to live In
the Andrew Baker cottage. When the nurse
awoke at 5 o clock this morning Miss Rog-
was missing from the room and the Win
dow screen was cut away
An odd feature of the case was that five
imprints of two bare left feet were found
in the dust on the porch. There was no i'm
print of right foot.
Scores of volunteers including mounta in
GERS and summer visitors. were soon search
ing the woods and dragging the nearby Sar-
anac river. but so far no trace of the young
woman has been found Scissors with which
the window screen was cut were picked up
near the house.
Judge Strong issued "John Doe" SUBJ
poena for Smith, who had refused to fur
nish information about the woman. and the
latter, responding, testified that Miss Rog-
ers' home Is in Leesburg, Va. He said
that she had suffered with lung trouble and
recently met with financial reverses He at
tributed her disappearance to worry over
her troubles He admitted that she was
still we'll to do financially.
When she left the Baker cottage Miss
Rogers wore only her light clothing. At the
Riverside Inn 1t was said that during Miss
Rogers stay there she appeared to be per-
fectly rational. but kept to herself and had
little to say to any of the other patrons of
the hotel. She was about twenty-five years
old, dark and slim. 1t is feared that her
body will be found in the Saranac river.
There Is talk of bringing bloodhounds from
Dannemora prison to aid in the search.

An Infdeiis Sermon to . Preacher.

IN
Never SHALL forget the remark Of a
learned legal friend who was at one
time somewhat skeptical in his views.
Said he to me:
."Did I believe, as you do, that the
masses of our race are perishing in SIN,
I could have 10 rest. I would fly to
tell them Of salvation. I would labor
day and night. I would speak with all
the pathos I could summon. I would
warn and expostulate and entreat my
fellowmen to turn TO Christ, and re-
ceiye salvation at His hands. I am as
tonished at the manner in which the
majority Of you ministers tell your
message. Why, you do not act as If
you believed your own words. You
have not the earnestness in preaching
that we lawyers have In pleading. X
we were as tame as you are, we would
never carry a single suit"
A decade Of years has passed away
since that remark was made. I bless
| God it was addressed to me. It put IRE
| into my bones which I hope will burn
as long as I five. God preached a
stirring sermon to me that day by the
mouth Of that infdel lawyer.-Peter

on seeing him. The owner of the dog
was Stumped. as he could not take
the animal along and did not have time
to return home with it and get his
train. The dog, innocent of the trouble
be had made by following the cab
from home, tried to be playful, but his
master was angry. While the crowd
laughed the owner concluded to take

into the vehicle, ordered the driver to
