deputy sheriffs and constables in the various precincts, have been informed of the disappearance of the woman, but up to date she has not been sighted.
 The mysterious manner in which Miss Knox has dropped out of sight is con sidered one of the strangest happenings to occur in Yavapai county in many years. Last Thursday, accompanied by two dogs, she started towards the near by mountains for short walk.
 Later the dogs appeared at ranch close to Humboldt, but from the time the woman left the Shelter City until the present, not sign of her, or a trace as to her whereabouts, has been secured.
 Her friends fear she has met death, either at the hands of some unknown assailant, or through falling into some deep gulch, while others familiar with the affair are inclined to think she has for reasons unknown left the country without being seen, leaving her friends to account for her disappearance as best they may.

HAIL HIT BY LIGHTNING.
One of the Varieties of April Wealth.
 CT the Moltke Ran Into.

The Hamburg American liner Moltke ran into many varieties of April weather off the Banks, includ- ing a combination hail and thunder storm. The lightning was vivid, and. mirrored in the ice pellets made the air look as if it were filled with little incandeseent lights. In passing be- tween the islands of St George and Pico. in the Azores, about 10 o'clock on the morning of April 13, Captain Dempwolff of the Moltke was attract ed by large boat that seemed to be in distress. He changed the course of his ship and bore down on the boat. When he got almost within hailing distance he saw there were six men in the boat and that it was towing a dead whale that seemed to be about so feet long. He went a little nearer to the whale to accom- modate passengers who wanted to take snapshots of the whale. The boat was headed for St George, was about a mile and a half out, and was going slowly. It Is not uncommon for the Azoreans to capture whales off the islands, just as our own whaI- CTS kill the big mammals near Anna gansett.

He is an ex- pert telegraph operator and has the distinction of operating daily the shortest telegraph line in the world. It is little over 30 feet long and runs from his desk into the next room to that of his private secretary and confidential clerk, both of whom are ex-operators. MT De Graw uses the telegraph line instead of the telephone in directing his two assist ants. He sometimes uses it also for dictation, and will sit at his desk and dictate letters by wire to his clerk in the next room. It is very private sort of communication too, for there

Senator Charles Dick, old time friend and colleague of Senator For aker, has gone to Ohio to personally conduct the fight of the Foraker against the Taft forces. It is a move that might have been expected, in fact was expected as a development of the campaign. The interest lies however in the fact that Senator Dick has made the fiat announcement that the Ohio republican machine is against Roosevelt, Rooseveltism and any Roosevelt candidate. Thus the issue is squarely made, and it will be a finish fight for neither the presi- dent nor Senator Foraker are in the habit of giving quarter. Outsiders may look on with interest and gain considerable instruction therefrom. It is the first serious and open split in the republican arnks, and the question that will be settled for the rest of the campaign will be whether or not the presidents personality and popularity in his own party will avail against one of the most effec- tive machines in one of the worst machine ridden states.

It has constituted itself sort of clearing house for the ma jor scientific societies, chief among them the American association for the advancement of science and Ma tional academy of sciences. These two important institutions will here after have their permanent head qaurters in the Smithsonian building, and will transact through it their mass of correspondence with the rest of the scientific world. It is cour- tesy that has been accepted with thanks by both bodies, and will tend to make the Smithsonian more than ever the clearing house for the scien- tific work of the whole country.

William Jennings Bryan has made a definite announcement of his po- sition on the railroad question. He says that he is ultimately in favor of government ownership because he be- lieves that mere government control will prove inadequate to cope with the railroad situation. He says, however, that he knows that many, perhaps even majority of the people are not ready for government owner ship, that they are afraid of it as too radical, and he favors a trial of gov ernment control in order to prove what it will and what it will not ac- complish. So for the present, he stands exactly on the same footing as the present administration. But he goes farther in declaring that the valuation of railroad properties should be made on the basis of the
 actual money invested in them. This would be a drastic squeezing out of all water. Rates, he says should be fixed to give a fair return on this capitalization. Such a scheme would
 be welcomed by shippers all over the country. It would send the produce of the farm to market cheaper and
 bring the farmer the products of the factories cheaper than ever before in the history of the country. But there would be an awful fight against the program by the railroad interests. such fight in fact that it is doubtful if it could be put into ef- feet in the next decade. Thus 1t will be seen that Bryan is far ahead of the most foremost men of the times.

WHAT IT COSTS TO LIVE.
Government Statisticians, After
 Thorough Inspection, Make Report.

 Washington, D. C., April 29.- Living expenses are increasing at rate that finally has startled the gov ernment statistician. and he is the last man in the world to be startled at anything.
 For three years the average Amer ican housekeeper has felt the strain of increased household expenses, but, until within few months, the mat ter has not appealed officially to the statistical agents of the government. Indeed. less than year ago, hgures were made public by the bureau or labor which seemed to indicate that there had been no increase in the liv- ing expenses of the average Ameri- can citizen. The figures showed that some articles of everyday use in American households had gone up in price, but the general per centage of increase was so small as to be fncon- siderable. At that very time 1t was known to every householder in the land that his expenses had increased materially and that he was paying more for the support of his family than he ever had paid before.
 Now. these facts have dawned on the government officials. The latest investigations made by the bureau of labor have thrown some strong light on the subject. The criticism made of the reports made about year ago induced the officers of the labor bu- reau to institute an inquiry into the cost of wholesale amounts of com modities generally used in house. keeping. The comparisons insti- tuted covered a period of seventeen years. The inquiry into the whole sale prices of such articles has been completed and now an investigation into the retail prices of the same commodities is being made. The lat ter will not be completed for several months yet. but the statistics respect ing the wholesale prices has prepared the statistieians for what they will find in their inquiry into the retail prices
 In the inquiry only recently com pleted it was discovered that the wholesale prices of 25S ordinary commodities had reached a higher level in 1906 than at any previous time in the history of the country. Of course. the period covered by the investigation was only seventeen years, but at no time prior to that had prices so high been attained as to any considerable number of the articles investigated. On the whole number of articles the average price in 1906 was 5.s per cent higher than it was in 1905. and 36.5 per cent higher than in 1897. the year in which the lowest prices of all the commodities were reached in the sev- enteen year period. The statistics show that the highest level of prices vas reached in December. 1906. the average for that month being Al per cent higher than for the entire year of 1s8s. and s-3 per cent higher than for the corresponding month of the previous year.
 It is stated by the bureau of labor that the inquiries covered farm pro duets. food. clothing. lumber. build ing material. drugs. house furnish inEs and miscellaneous commodities Farm products and chemicals showed a slight decrease from the prices of 1905. but all other products fndi- Icated a material increase The av-
