Located Murdered Girl.

A strange story of psychic pheno-
menon comes from Garhamstown,
Cape Colony. Thomas Kerr, who was
charged with the murder of Ellen Pin
mock, a ten-year-old girl, was recently
discharged, the jury having disagreed.
The girl disappeared while on her way
home with purchases from Garhams-
town grocer named South. South, who
practices hypnotism, placed young
man of his acquaintance named Sta
pies in trance state, and asked him
II he could trace the whereabouts of
the missing girl. Staples thereupon
declared that she had been murdered
and lay buried under the floor of a
house which he would indicate. He
was reused from his trance and, ac-
companied by detective and five
other men, went to the house in which
Kerr lived, and found the body of the
girl buried in the cellar.

CALL OF WEST FOR TAFT.

People may admit the honesty and
ability and past services of each of
the men put forward to contest the
nomination for the presidency with
Secretary Taft, but the fact remains
that in the final analysis the latter is,
by Ions Ldds, the popular choice. Left
to themselves, there is little doubt as
to what course the people would take
in selecting the nominee.
Figures were quoted the other day
showing tie preponderance of Taft
sent,LieDt in the Middle Western
states. They were obtained from a
straw vote taken by the Chicago Tri-
bune among Republican editors and
leaders. That the Pacific coast and
mountain states are also strong in
Taft sentiment is manifested by a
similar vote in this territory. The fig
ures were published in detail when
the vote was taken some weeks ago,
but renewed general reference to
them is interesting.
In California, Nevada, Utah, Colo
RADIO. Washington, Wyoming, Idaho,
Oregon and Montana Secretary Taft
was first choice by an overwhelming
majority. Taft had total of 307 as
first choice, Cannon 10, Fairbanks 21,
Knox 8. Hughes 65, Lafollette 81,
There were scattering votes for For
aker, Root and Cortelyou. Secretary
Taft received three times as many as
all the otner candidates combined.
The popular call is for the nomina-
tion of the man who will most surely
carry ON the great work begun by
President Roosevelt. In the next six
months this call must be crystallized
into The election of delegates to the
Republican national convention who
will truly represent the people,

MADE THE CONGREGATION GASP.
Northerner's Liberality Astonished the
Colored Brethren.

A northern gentleman, visiting in q
southern village. attended church at a
negro meeting house. When 1t came
time for the collection to be taken,
two deacons seated themselves beside
a table before the pulpit with the
plate between them.
One by one the congregation rose,
and stepping forward, deposited a cent
or a nickel upon the plate before the
eyes of the watchful deacons. When
all the members had gone forward the
northern man took half-dollar from
his pocket, and leaning forward and
touching negro on the shoulder
handed it to him and motioned toward
the pulpit.
The colored brother rose with alac-
rity, but with eyes big with astonish-
ment, and holding the coin between
the tips of his fingers and extending it
high in the air where all might see
1t, he marched slowly and ostenta-
tiously forward.
He was about to deposit it on the
plate when one of the deacons mo-
toned and whispered to him. The eff
feet was instantaneous. The coin
bearer lowered the coin out of the
public gaze and stepped back to the
donor.
Please, sah," he said, in a low
voice, does you want lsome change
back-and how much?"
The visitor shook his head. Again
up went the coin, borne by smiling
negro, and with clangor and an aud
ible buzz of approval from the specta-
tors, it fell into the plate.
Watched by the deacons, the
preacher counted the funds. The col
lection this morning amounts to SS
cents" he announced. I'VE will now
enter upon service of thanksgiving"

fact, Taft's leadership is quite uni.
versal. 1t is all over the country. And
it is there by right-that is, it is there
because the people are for Taft first,
because he stands with Roosevelt on
the main question, and, second (Which

Hopping is one of the best exercises
for developing muscles 1t is easy to
do, too, for the movement consists of
jumping first on one foot ami then on
the other, so that the whole weight of

exercise improves the way of carrying
