It is undoubtedly the place Of the
shipwreck, the account Of which is
given in Acts e.
At Athens, chief among the things
Of interest was Mars Hill where
Paul delivered his great sermon on
the resurrection. The Parthenon,
the hewn rock platform on the hill
where Demosthenes delivered his
orations against Philip of Macedon,
the Temple of Jupiter, the Prison Of
Socrates, the Bay of Salamis, the
plains of Marathon-all, though
wreathed about by a glorious past,
must give way to Mars Hill. Here
the Athenian court sat in midnight
session, so that no Judge might be
influenced by the slightest facial ex-
preston, or motion of the band or
body, but here Paul preached Jesus
Christ thence Mars Hill lives.
We are now on the Sea of Marmo-
ra, having few hours ago passed
through the Dardenelles. In a few
hours, we will reach Csnstantinople,
where, with its $4,000 dogs, some
one has suggested we shall have a
dogon time. AS for myself, | have
nothing against these dogs. The
more / see of the Turk the more re-
spect | have for dogs.
| will try to send a couple more
letters, one from Jerusalem and one
from Cairo, possibly one from Paris
or London. / wish | had the time
to write once a week. 1t would be a
good opportunity to persecute your
long suffering readers. But when |
have returned, l will do that by
talking about it.
The members of my small party
are all we'll and having a great time.

Some Hopkinsville People
May Wait Till It's too
Late.

Don't wait until too late.
Be sure and be in time.
Just in time with Kidney Pills
Means curing the back.
Before backache becomes chronic
Before serious urinary troubles set
in.
Doan's Kidney Pills will do this.
Here is Hopkinsville testimony to
prove it.
j. w. Pritchett, retired grocer of
752 East 7th Street., says: my back
has given me a great deal of trouble.
The pain was not continually Sc
we're but came on by intermittent
spells, which were sometimes very
painful especially after over--eAer-
tion of any kind. Being constantly
on the outlook for something to re-
lieve me | happened to read of Doan's
Kidney Pills, and was so impressed
with the testimonials as to their
worth, that procured a box. The
remedy benefited in every way and |
hope that my endorsement will be
the means of extending relief to some
other sufferer"

MYSTERIOUS TRAGEDY
Butler for Paul G.1 Thebaud Shoots
 Employers Son and Kills Himself.

White Plains, N. r, Nov. 10.-John Bjorlin, butler at the Hillair farm, the country home of Paul c. Thebaud, the New York commission rerohant, killed himself to-day after he had shot and dangerously wounded his employ ers eldest son, Paul G., jr. The lat ter, who alone might explain the shooting, remained unconscious to- night.
 The family was aroused at day break by the report of revolver twice discharged. Young Theibaud was found senseless in bed. A bullet had struck his skull and though de- fiected, had fractured and depressed the bone. The butler, stretched upon the floor, was dead, with bullet in his brain. It is believed that Thebaud will recover. It is suggested that the butler may have lost his head while hunting supposed burglars and killed himself i'll remorse when he discover ed his mistake He was thirty five years of age and had been in the fam fly for several years.
 The family believe the shooting to have been accidental. It was stated at the home tonight that Paul was an enthusiastic hunter and had planned to rise early to-day and so on a hunt ing trip The family say that BJoriin had been drinking heavily of late. Their theory is that he went to Pauls room to awaken him and In spirit of careless fun pointed his weapon at the boy, That the revolver was acci- dentally discharged whereupon the butler in remorse Over his reckless ness killed himself. Paul was seven teen years old.

Great Benefits to Follow Secretary
 Ta9t's Visit to Philippines.
 Manila, Nov 1O.--A feature of the visit of Secretary of War Taft to Ma nila was the presence of Aguinaldo at several of the functions. Discussing the probable results of the visit of MT. Taft to Manila with a representative of the Associated Press, Aguinaldo said:
 Tt is my belief that the benefits to follow the visit to the people of the Philippines will be greater than they can recognize at the present time. I am at present unable to form an opin- ion offhand of the possible future ad- vantages, but I am confident that it has done good The opening of the assembly has gone a long way to ce- ment the friendship of my people with the people of the United States,
 "As a fulfillment of a solemn prom ise which many thought would not be fulfilled, the secretary of war did not bring about independence for my peo- pie in his pocket. but he brought the means of attaining it. He told us how we can get it. The Filipinos are thankful for the information and pleased at what the assembly has done, especially in the, interests oi legislation, education and agricul- , ture."

FOUR PER GENT. DIVIDEND
About one-Half of s25,OOO,OOO of De-
 posits Will be Benefited.

The decision of New Haven savings banks to increase their dividend to four per cent. means a generous addition to the savings of local depositors. The to- tai amount of savings in the three sav-
 ngS institutions of the city is over $25, OQo,09O and about half of this amount will /be benefited by the increase.
 The action calling for an increase is the result of recent meeting when it was unanimously agreed to recommend to their respective trustees that the next dividend in January be at the rate of four per cent. per annum, or two per cent, for the six months OH al de- posits without regard to the amount. For several years prior to July, 1906 the rate has been three and one-half per cent. on all deposits, but at that time the rate was made four per cent. on all deposits up to $1,OOO, and three and one-half per cent on the excess of all deposits over that amount,
 When the action of the several com mittees is approved all depositors will receive interest at the rate of four per cent. per annum or two per cent. for the six months.
