senger of the First National Bank, at

Friends of the young man and of his
family are positive that he has either

report places the amount close to $780,
600. C. D. Backus, cashier of the First
National Bank. says the boy had one
draft for 100000, but that it was nit pre-
sented by the young man for collection.
A duplicate, he said, has since been is
sued and collected. Il is known also that
he had two checks amounting to $3.50.
Harvey went to work as usual on
Wednesday and was sent out by Mr..
Backus. the cashier, to collect some
drafts and checks. He did not return,
and later in the day his disappearance
was reported to the United States Guar
anty and Trust Company, which bonded
the young man.
Detectives employed by that company
were at once sent out to search for him,
but it was not until late last night that
the police were called in.
The bank officers do not admit that the
amount in Harvey's possession was as
much as $2O0,OOO They say that the
amount of cash was small and that few
of the notes were negotiable.
Harvey is the son of Louis f. Har-
yey a teller in the Chase National Bank,
and is 10 years old.
He lived with his father and step
mother at No. 465 Thirteenth street,
BROOKLYN. He was trusted by his en-
blowers and large amounts of money were
frequently put into his hands for delivery
or collection. The father IS at a ioss to
explain his sons disappearance.

The, conferences which will take

invited to be present to give i1storma-

Descendants of Indian Maid.
Most OF the women who are promi-

ants of Pocahontas, for the Indian
princess became the ancestor of some
of the best families in the South. The
historian OF the society, Ella Lorraine
Dorsey. has prepared a complete list
of those who can claim descent, and
whether or not they belong to the
sbciety, they will be asked to be pres?

a strange love for the white race,
rare indeed in the annals Of the red

OF the colony. m5times Of famine she.

and to avoid the frowns4o of her people
she had to carry the food herself for

Several times later She warned

wynn when the redskins would have
Killed him.
But it was when Pocahontas came
into young womanhood. when she
passed out OF the girl stage, that she
entered upon. the most dramatic pc
Rod of her life. Relations between
she whites and Indians had become
strained to a point where Powhattan
E3acreed the death of every white
man found in his domain. Fearing
that the redskin leader might be able
to make good his threat, Governor
Dale, head of the colony. conceived
the plan Of capturing Pocahontas, ia
vorite daughter Of Powhattan, and
holding her as a hostage for the safe
ty Of any English who might be taken
by the savages.
1t was a cruel expedient, a deyic-
worthy the sayagery of the Indians
themselves to thus separate father
and daughter, but it worked perfectly.
She was betrayed on to an English
ship and taken to jamestown. Con-
~ferences were arranged, but Powhat-
tan remained sullen, and refused to
treat with Governor Dale till Poca-
hontas should have BEEN restored.
Meantime the Indian Princess, liv-
Ing with the English, had come into
an unexpected soIace.
Heart interests Enter.
Two great forces had suddenly
come into her llfe-religion and love.
Accepting the doctrines Of the Cos
pei, she was baptized into the Church
and took the name of Rebecca.
Among the daring blades and youth
full adventures in the colony was John
Rolre, a man of good family and Chris
.tion worth. He quickly loved the
beautiful Indian Princess and aided
in her education. While teaching her
the ways of the white man, he also
Installed in her heart the greatest
of passions, and the outcome was the
marriage of the two.
Powhattan consented to the union
and sent two of his sons to witness
the ceremony.
In these incidents stand out three
pictures well worthy to figure in Part

bracing the faith Of the English, and
being baptized; Rolfe teaching her

years.
