the number of skilled American en-
ployes was explained as indicating a
tendency toward reduction in the
number Of supervisory positions.

Some Hartford People Have
Learned How to Get Rid
OF Both.

Backache and kidney ache are twin

Mrs. A. Baur, 737 Mulberry ST., Ow-

The first seen of the woman this

from her home. The fire department
was called and it was discovered that
she had made a large bonfire Of

The house was not badly burned,
only damaged to the extent OF about

city for many years, and she was
often arraigned in police court on the
charge OF conducting an immoral
house. Frequently the police were
called to her home and she stood
them off at the point OF revolver

then she was hard to place under ar
rest as she would fight to finish.

ing the streets around his carriage,
the Rev DR.. Wise, the famous Eng

to Jail to-day for leading n Bible pa

THINK MIRACLE

When Pool Suddenly Fill

WATER ROSE IN DRY STREAM
Stayed Until All Converts
We're Immersed-Many
Eye witnesses.

Danville, KY, Nov. 13.-Few people
nowadays believe in miracles, but
members of the Baptist congregation
at Ellisburg, Casey county, were al
most convinced that the miraculous
had occurred, following protracted
meeting conducted at the little church
there by Rev. w. r. Davidson, who
resides In this city. The meeting
had been in progress several weeks
and there were thirty-three converts
to be baptized. Rev. J. n. Bowling,
now of st. Joseph, Mo-, was pastor
of the church, but Mr.. Davidson was
conducting the revival. Sheridan
Downy and Vincent Peyton, who were
deacons of the church then, still &C.
cupy the same positions.
The weather had been dry for sew
eral months and the Big South Fork,
where all previous baptisings had Ia
ken place, was perfectly dry. A dele
cation composed Of Alfred Coulter, Of
this city. now Councilman in the
Fifth ward, and a number Of other
men were dispatched to locate a pool
OF sufficient depth. They returned
with the information that the river
bed was dry and arrangements were
made to postpone the ceremony until
later in the year, as, all members knew
the regular baptizing pool was per-
fectly dry.
The minister and congregation were
startled when a messenger brought
the report on the last night of the
meeting that the regular pool in the
creek near the church had filled with
water since the committee had re-
turned from their trip.
No rain had fallen and the people
were loath to believe the report I'M
til they visited the place and saw
with their own eyes. Although the
whole bed of the river was dry eX-
cept the one spot, the water arose
to the depth of four or five feet and
the baptziing was conducted on Sun
day afternoon. Mrs. Alfred Coulter
and Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas Young, of
this city, were baptized and bear wit
ness to the remarkable coincidence.
Rev. Mr.. Davidson was interviewed
and verified the foregoing statements.
He said the water began sinking
shortly after the baptizing ended, and
that by the following Wednesday the
pool was as dry as the remainder of
the river bed. No more water APP
