AT MARVIN FARM
Continued from Second Page)

Horace's fate and wjShed to remain
for several days. Kind-hearted old
DR.. Marvin gave him he'd and board
and yesterday the aged sleuth mys-
teriously disappeared, presumably to
follow up a clew.
Myles Standish, brother-in-law Of
Dr. Marvin, reached Dover last night
from Boston. He was much distressed
by the news of Horace's death and
lost no time in getting out to the
farm.
A report reached Dover that Dr
Marvin. haunted by the sad fate Of
his little son, viii shortly give up the
Bay Meadow Farm and return West
The family declined to confirm the
statement and the old father. worn out
by the awful ordeal through which he
has passed during the day, was en-

since the day his little son disappear

SAYS THIS is BEST

A leading health journal IN an
swerlng the question. What is the
best prescription to clean and pur-
ify the bloody' prints in a recent
issue the following; Fluid Extract
of Dandelion one-half ounce. Com
pound Kargon one ounce, Com
pound Syrup Sarsaparllla three
ounces. Shake we'll and use in tea
spoonful doses after each meal and
at bedtime.
A well-known local druggist
states that these are harmless
vegetable ingredients. which can
be obtained from any good pre-
scription pharmacy.
This mixture will clean the blood
Of all impurities. In just a few
days the skin begins 10 clear Of
sores, bons and pimples. It puts
vigor and energy into rundown,
debllitated men and women. For
many years Sarsaparllla alone has
been considered a good blood medl-
cine. But while it built up and
made new blood, the impurities re-
mained within and the good ac-
complished was only temporary.
Sarsaparilla, however, when used
in combination with Compound
Kargon and Extract Dnndelion,
works wonders. This combination
puts the kidneys to work to filter
and sift out the waste matten
uric acid and other impurities that
cause disease. 1t makes new blood
and relieves rheumatism and lame
back and bladder troubles.

FINDING OF THE
BODY OF THE BOY

Bowed with grief, but determined to
have the mystery, now deepened more
than ever. sifted to the bottom, DR.
Marvin, the child's father said shortly
after the body was found:
There is little for me to say at this
time Everybody worked hard to find
my boy and now he has been found
dead. The same little garments that
we dressed him up in on that March
he wears now in death. They are
just as they were. We found him
in a pool with hardly enough water in
it to cover his face. We found him
a half mile from the stack where he
last played, and on practically the
same spot where I only yesterday
stood and nailed up a tall post that
had fallen down. There was no water
there at that time. but it rained dur
ing the night.
1T is hard to believe that the little
fellow wandered down there and died
In fact, everything indicates that such
cannot be the case. I am quite sure
that I would have seen the body had
It been there yehterday, and I am
positive 1t would have been charred
had it been there a short time ago,
when Pinkerton detectives and myself
burned Off the grass. We searched
this marsh land which lies near the
house with perfect thoroughness. We
thought all along that perhaps. after
all. the little fellow had wandered into
the marshy land and been swallowed
up, and for that reason our quest was
as vigorous as it could possibly have

MANY PASSED THE SPOT

Hunters have dozens of times with
in the last few weeks plodded through
all this marsh land, and the very man
who found the body declares that he
passed by-the Identical spot two days
ago. His eyes were always on the
ground wherever he went. He he
lieved he would some day find the
body and he was always looking. It
hardly seems possible, does It, that he
would have missed seeing the body
three or four days ago had it been
there?
1.-THE case has been a terrible strain
on us all The horror Of not knowing
where he was was almost more than
we could bear But we have him now.
We shall bury him and perhaps the
grief will pass away after a while
"If his little life has been taken by
foul hands afraid of the death penalty
for kidnapping if caught. then that is
a matter for the State of Delaware TO
consider-not for us. If such be the
case, how hideous must be the night

From my observations as a physi-
clan. I think the boy had not been

ably not that long. Until we had
moved him TO the house there was
hardly any discoloration and the flesh
was solid. The State of Delaware.

HUNTERS TELL OF SEARCH
OF special significance is a statement
made by Frank F. Pleasanton, Howard
Marvin and Oliver Pleasanton, three of
the men who have taken part in the
remarkable search for the missing boy.
They declare that within a week they
searched the entire marsh, going over
it on their hands and knees, so that
nothing could possibly escape them.
They make the positive declaration
that the boys body was not in the
marsh when their search was made
Other persons are equally emphatic in
their assertions.

Manila, Nov. 9.-The departure Of

Mr.. Taft started from the residence

in which he thank the people for their

FUSION PROVES A FAILURE
Tammany Defeats RepubIican-lnde-
pendence League Ticket.


New York, Nov. 6.-The election in
Greater New York has been largely
favorable to the Democrats. New
York county Manhattan and the
BRONX went Overwhelmingly their
way, Thomas F. Foley, for sheriff, the
head of the ticket, having a plurality
of 26,723 over M. f. Ihmsen, indie
pendence league and Republican, in a
comparatively light vote. The fusion
between the Republicans and the In
dependence league was a failure, ex-
cept in the case of a few minor Off
Gals.
In Richmond and Queens, too, the
Democrats were generally successful,
but in Kings county (Brooklyn) the
Democrats, under the leadership of
Senator Patrick H. McCarren, suffered
a reverse. All the Republican candi-
dates on the county ticket, with the
single exception of Clarke, Demo
cratic candidate for district attorney,
are apparently elected.
In the state election Edward T.
Bartlett and Willard Bartlett, having
the united support of Republicans and
Democrats, were elected judges of the
court Of appeals by an enormous ma
jority over the candidates Of the indie
pendence league.

AGAIN LOWERS THE RECORD
Lusitania Clips Seventy-two Minutes
From Former Mark.

New York, Nov. 8.-The marvellous
record established less than a month
ago by the giant turbine Cunarder
Lusitania, when she cut several hours
from the passage time across the At
lantic, already has been broken. The
Lusitania still retains the title of
queen of the seas, as it was she her
self that established the new low mark
and incidentally she added several
new records to her credit. These i'll
clude the best single days run, 61S
knots, made Nov. 6; an average Of
more than 600 knots for every full
day and an average hourly speed of
24.25 knots for the full 2,781 miles.
On her last voyage the Lusitania
covered the distance in 4 days, 10
hours and SO minutes. The voyage
just ended over the same course was
completed in 4 days, 10 hours and 40
minutes, thus clipping one hour and
twelve minutes from the previous low
mark. And this was done in the face
of conditions none too favorable. From
the start the weather was stormy and
on the last two days, when the big
steamer was on the home stretch,
where the greatest burst Of speed
might have been expected, she drove
straight into the teeth of a strong
wind, high seas and, occasional sharp

BIG STRIKE is AvERTED.
Labor Trouble in Great Britain to- Be
Settled by Arbitration.

London, Nov. 1.-THE anticipated
railroad strike throughout Great Brit
ain, the idea of which caused so much
concern to the British public, has
been averted by an agreement drafted
by David Lloyd-George, president of
the board of trade, and signed by the
chairmen of the principal railroad
companies and representatives of the
Amalgamated Societies of Railway
Servants.
The agreement provides for the
consideration of further matters in
dispute primarily by a sectional board
of Cancellation representing the vari-
Gus grades of employees and the indi-
vidual railroads.
In case of disagreement an under
standing will be attempted by the
board of Cancellation and an equal
number of men representing the full
membership of the society. If these
representatives fail to reach a decis'
ion the matter must then be settled
by arbitration.
