 and Forngad.


 New York, Oct. 4.-To escape the drudgery of washing dishes and scrub ping floors. two servant girls. stella Bona aged IT and Rose Miller. aged IS, lived for two months like tramps in the vicinity of Flushing Long is- land. stealing milk, getting meat from doorsteps. clothes from wash lines and cooking utensils wherever they chanc- ed on them.
 These foraging expeditions were con- ducted at night and by day the girls lounged in thickets. slept and watched the boats go up Long Island Sound. Detectives ran across the girls camp and took them by surprise as they were squatting over a Gypsy fire be- fore a rude tent one of the pair was caught at once. though she bit and scratched vigorously. but the other got away for a short time.
 when the prisoners were srraigned before a magistrate in Long leland city. Rose Miller. who is a tall and rather handsome girl. explained plaus- ibly that utter weariness of house work had driven them to tramp.

 Told Them
 Of Ik.

Raleigh. N. C.. Oct. 4--The trial of the Rowlands. husband and wife for the murder of Engineer Charles R.. Strange, fn April of this year by poison, Mrs. Rowland then being Strange . wife, the defense today practically ad- mitted that Dr. Rowland had bought aconite poison, witnesses tsstifying that he used 1t in their families and had spoken of 1t.
 The strongest card of the defense was it's introduction of Mrs. Eldridge Smith, wife of the city hall janitor. who said she was the person who mad been mis- taken for Mrs. Strange in pr. Rowland s office by Mrs. P. D. B. Arlington. The latter testified later that 1t was not Mrs. Smith, but Mrs. Strange she saw. On cross examination Mrs. Smith admitted having been in the jail three times as a visitor where she talked with pr. Rowland of incidents she told on the trial.
 Witnesses were introduced who testi- fled that Dr. Rowland had patients in the section where Mrs. Strange had lived and that he was in the section on professional business. Fhysicians said that Strange had heart disease, had said so and used digitalis for it. Argument began tonight and will be finshed tomorrow, it being expected the case will reach the jury late in the afternoon or at night.

New York, Oct. 4.--President W. W. Finley of the southern Railroad Com pany said today that a rumor circu- lated in the financial district today of receivers for that company, for financial. political or any other rea- sons, is preposterous. President Fin- ley added:
 aAnybody familiar with the south ern Railways financial condition must know that there Is no reason of a financial nature or any such move. The suggestion that the property might be put in the hands of receivers by the Federal courts as a means of thwart- ing political attacks, that has been heard before. It has never been se- riousiy thought of by the management which has elected in fact, to pursue a policy of conciliation."

The Christ spirit influences the

T. the least manifestation of tho

Is especially seen in . more kindly

we're men whose science led them
to God, men, we may be sure, of medita~
tive habits, of ascetic lives. The
fragments of early tradition and the
obscure records of ancient prophecies,
belonging to their nations, have been
to them as precious deposits which
spoke of God and were filled with hid
den truth. They, too, pinned for a re-
deemer, for some heavenly visitant
Their tribes, doubtless, lived in close
alliance, and they themselves were
bound together by the ties of a
friendship which the same pure
yearnings after greater goodness and
higher things cemented. Never yet
had kings more royal souls. In the
dark blue of the lustrous sky there
rose a new or hitherto unnotfced
star. It's apparition could not escape
the notice of these oriental sages: who
nightly watched the skies: their SCI
ence was also their Theology. It was
the star of which an ancient prophecy
had spoken. Perhaps it dropped low
toward earth and wheeled too swift
course to be like one of the other
stars. Perhaps it traf1ed line OF

that makes Canada rejoice most is
this of the 1912 American farmers
who decided to try their fortunes in
Canada West.
"The compliment Is deserved. The

the reasons given are sufficient to- in
vite the welcome, The Ameriacn

of every phase of agricultural develt

apprehension to the successful Cana
dian farmer. The agent Of the Cana
dian Government, whose address ap-
pears elsewhere, says that the differ.
ence between the manners and GUS
toms Of the farmer from Dakota, Ore
gon or Minnesota and the farmer from
Manitoba, Saskatchewan or Alberta
is not nearly so marked as that be-

homesteads Of the Canadian West,
and there are hundreds of thousands
of them left, that is extended to the,
settler from the Western States.

Now when Jesus was born in Beth
lehem Of Judea in the days OF Herod
the king behold there came wise men
from the east to Jerusalem, saying:
Where is he that is born king of the
Jews? for we have seen. his star In
the east and are come to worship him.
When Herod the king heard these
things he was troubled, and all Jer,1-
salem with him. Then Herod, when
he had privately called the wise men,
inquired of them diligently what time
the star appeared. And he sent them
to Bethlehem. When they had heard
the king they departed, and, 10! the
star which they saw in the east went
before them till it came and stood
where the young child was. When
they saw the star they rejoiced with
exceeding great joy. And when they
were come into the house they saw
the young child with Mary, his moth.
er, and fell down and worshiped him,
and when they had opened their treas.
ures they presented unto him gifts;
gold, frankincense and myrrh. And,
being warned of God in q dream that
they should not return to Herod, they
departed into their own country an.
other way.-Gospel of st. Matthew.
When the wise men saw the star
they said one to another: This is
the sign of the great king; let us go
and search for him and offer him
gifts; gold, frankincense and myrrh.
