Miss, who is on trial charged with assisting the deposed cashier of the pensacola Bank and Trust Company in issuing exchanges was not completed today, another sen- sation developed when Charles on the witness stand produced a contract signed by himself and scudamore and written on stationery of the bank, in which Scudamore admitted that he owed Charles, and that his New York exchange for t2,o00 was to be taken to secure the Indebtedness.
 This was dated November 2, three or four days before the removal of scudamore from the bank. The sem sation came when the officers of the bank examined the document and then put witnesses on the stand to prove that the stationery on which 1t was written was not printed until thirty days afterwards. long after scuda- more's removal.
 Until after Scudamore's removal all stationery was Autographed and 1t was this fact that caused the officers to de- clare that the note had been made by Charles.

Some of the specially masculine

Some of the specially masculine problems" involved in the missionary future are here pointed out:
 "only men can give to missions the supervision that they require. As there Is a phenomenal drawing to- gether of denominational bodies on the mission fields. with a breaking down of lines of division that must gladden. the heart of every one who Is distressed by any kind of wasted force and hurt full friction, so there is bound to come in the home lands a coordination of missionary agencies that will far ex- eeed the friendly cooperation already existing. There should be no force spent here that can be better utilized on the field. The business judgment of the hard-headed laity will compel cancellations and co-ordinations that will save a vast amount of money and energy. and that will set free for the work of administration and oversight on the field force of trained execu- tives
 "At present the real activity is too far separated from authority and re- sponsibility: the boards are too re- mote from the fields. Different talents must be utilized for different work; a more discriminating employment of missionary workers. and a more di-
 
 of the work. Most missionaries are qualified for their positions; some are not. careful winnowing process will be maintained by closer, more business like oversight.
 "The missionary body as a whole is too worthy to be made to suffer for the shortcomings of the few. The pro- | fessions at home may have the ordi- nary proportion of effective and inef- fective men; not so with the picked missionary force Even the common place are not fit for this service; only | the excellent can suffice. This great work must be greatly manned. as well as greatly administered and greatly supported.
 Anti-missionary criticism is, thinks Mir. Ellis, a too greatly Ignored phase of the work of foreign missions. Al | criticism of missions should be chal' | lenEed, and "the ordinary anti-mission' ary liar should be fearlessly held uT as such to the scorn of the world One of the needs of the hour Is ar organization of the church's men fol sane, intelligent, and courageous mis sionary defense.' The "port-city prob lem" is also one presenting the mos lurgent need of masculine handling, 10 from the port cities "the Orient gain is most abiding impression of the Oc cident.' Mir. Ellis outlines as follow
 three methods of dealing with the mora
 problem of these cities:
 First. the union churches should
 strengthened. the very highest order
 men and ministers being put into tn
 pulpit. Second. a Christian secret ser
 vice should be established, non-profes
 sional workers going out ostensibl for business reasons, but really to
 missionary work among the Europea
 men. Third. pressure should b
 brought to bear upon the home govern
 ment. and upon the home officers

MARY NO LONGER

Divorce Suit in Theatrical Cir
cIes Involving Miss Man.
nering and MIR. Hackett.

New York. July 4.--That Mary Man
nering has brought suit for divorce
from James X Hackett was learned to-
day from Miss Mannering's counsel.
Among theatrical folk rumors of such
action have been current for some time.
The summons in" the divorce suit was
served on Mr. Hackett early in June,
three days before he sailed for Europe
Miss Mannering engaged counsel about
a wear ago, but the suit was not begun
until it was apparent that there was
no further hope of reconciliation.
Miss Mannering and Mr.. Hackett
have not lived together for year. At
the close of her theatrical season a
year ago Miss Mannering took apart
ments for herself, and when she later
went on tour she left her child in charge
of a sister who came from England
expressly to take care of the little one.
1t is understood that the complaint
will name more than one cO-respon-
dent.
Mr.. Hackett first met Miss Mannering
when he was leading man at Daniel
Frohmans Lyceum theatre and was APP
pearing as Bruce Leslie in 1.-The Court
shin of Leoni." They were married
May ., 1897, but the marriage was kept
secret until the following January. For
several seasons Mr.. Hackett and his
wife were joint stars.

is said to prefer the senate to the vice

stated that he will make no effort to
secure the vice presidential nomina-

in that connection, but, on the other
hand, to place himself in the best po-
sition to succeed Senator Hemenway,
in the event of a Democratic legisla-
