NOTHING HEARD OF
ATTORNEY GREER
Application for Divorce Not Yet Filed
Affair Creates Big Sensation
Probably Declare Office
Vacant.

The announcement in The Sentinel
yesterday of the sudden departure
from the city of George F. Greer.
the prominent young lawyer, and the
fact that Mrs. Greer will ask for a
divorce, created a big sensation and
was generally received with surprise.
Nothing has as yet been heard
from Attorney Greer but IL is believed
that he went to Denver. The charge
made today by the morning paper
that he left the city accompanied by
certain woman of i'll repute, Is
false. 1t Is almost certain that Mr.
Greer left the city alone.
Up to noon today Mrs. Greer had
not formally filed her application for
divorce although it has been pre-
pared Sc will be represented by At
torney j. w. Rozzelle.
The Office of county attorney now
held by Attorney Greer will in all
probability be declared vacant at the
next meeting of the board of county
commissioners and successor to Mr.
Greer elected. 1t is a very desirable
office and will be sought by several
local Republican attorneys. Mr.. Greer
has held the office since the first of
the year and has made a very salts
factory official.
Expressions to the effect that the
young attorney had splendid oppor-
tunities here to build up a large prac-
tice and hold a place of high esteem
in western Colorado legal circles are
frequently heard and it is generally
regretted that he went astray and
blasted to large extent the roseate
prospects.
Extremely sensational and to a
large extent untruthful reports re-
garding the affair were sent to Dem
yer papers last night by the corres-
correspondents. These reports stat
ed that the application for a divorce
was filed yesterday and that Mrs.
Greer had named number of women
as correspondents, which statements
are absolutely false.

THE WHITE STARS GREATEST
STEAMER ON THIS SIDE.

NEW YORK, May 16.-The Adriatic, new
est and greatest of the White Star liners,
arrived at this port on her maiden voyage
from Liverpool today. The big steamer
left quarantine for her dock at 1870 pm.
The Adriatic had on board 1894 persons
including 700 cabin and 1,SO2 steerage pas
sengers She~made the voyage of ESQ
miles in seven days. on hour and forty-five
minutes at an average speed of 11.O2 knots
per hour.
Passengers on the steamer Included Mr.
and Mrs. w. Bourke Cochran. ]. Bruce
Ismay president of the International Mer-
camille Marine Company; Mrs. Daniel s.
Lamont and Miss Frances Lamont and
Robert w. Perks. M. P. Mr.. Perks comes
here to discuss with the Methodists OF the
United States and Canada the project for
the establishment Of worldwide Metho-
dist brotherhood for the promotion or emf
grafton, employment. savings banks and
old age pensions among Methodists
The new liner Adriatic Is fairly claimed
to represent the highest attainment OF the
shipbuilder's art, and her great size mas
been turned to utmost advantage IN pro-
viding both for the comfort ana sarety OF
the passengers. She will make the TRIP

rival of the other leviathans OF the White
Star line, namely, the Oceanic, Celtic

A Long Steamer.
The Adriatic is TBS feet inches long, 70
feet @ inches beam and about 90 feet deep'
gross tonnage nearly 25,00O and dispiace-
ment over 10000 tons. The double bottom,
extending the whole length of the ship, Is
a special element of safety. The Adriatic
has nine steel decks and Is divided into
twelve water-tight compartments. The
total number of steel plates used in the
construction of the hull is close on 1000,
and the rivets are estimated at nearly
100000. The cables are 3as inches In
diameter and weigh about so. tons; the
anchors weigh about tons each.

Respect Due Pastoral Office.
In that connection Dr. Smith said:
Nowhere else, so far as we know, Is
there such a lamentable neglect Of the re-
spect due to the pastoral Office of the
clergy as here. The known wishes Of
bishop and clergy seem to have little
weight where inclinations run counter to
loving and loyal obedience. Rarely now in
many places is the clergy called upon to
minister to the sick and dying. With the
best intentions in the world, physicians
often forbid them to see their patients.
What wonder that now comes Christian
Science. so-called. and forbids the physician
himself to see the sick
Regarding the aged and dependent min
listers, DR.. Smith said:
Unable to toll any longer these must
surely welcome death as the friend which
takes them away from too-crushing pow
erty. And seem to be content to have
1t so; yet how the church can expect Gods
blessing We know not. Perhaps here we
have the secret of all our dryness of
spirit and all our want of success"

ter known as the kid" was today held for
the action of the grand jury on a charge Of
breaking into the lunch room Of William
Donnelly. 500 14rh street northwest. a few
nights ago and rihing the cash drawer. In
default of $1,000 he was ordered to be, COM
mitted to Jail to await trial In the Crimi-

Henderson was caught after midnight in
the back yard Of the lunch room and an In
vestigation following his capture showed
that the lunch room had been entered and
CHA, SIS 14th street northwest. had also
been burglarized and the money in the cash
drawer taken out. Judge Mullowny thought
the finding Of Henderson, in such close prox.
Unity to the stores in question In the mid

upon which to send him to a higher trt-
bunal for trial.
