Naval Ensign and Sweetheart
Play Tag Across the Seas
(By United Press Leased Wire.)

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
SAN FRANCISCO, April IA
Ensign Walter Jacons, U. s. NJ, is
in the city today impatiently
awaiting the arrival of the gov
eminent transport Sheridan, which
bears his fiance, Miss Winnie Dun
lap, sister-in-law of the prOsecut-
ing attorney of Manila. When the
yound woman arrives. the naval Of
ficer hapes to make1her his bride
and end an aggravating game of
tage which the young couple has
played for the past two years, and
which has led them acrorss oceans
and continents.
While Jacobs was in Manila at
tached to the U. s. s. Chattanooga,
in April, 1907, he met Miss Dun
lap, and they were engaged to be
married. The following month
the young ensign was called in to
headquarters. Soon after his de-
parture his fiance decided to fol-
low him and sailed for New York.
Upon her arrival there she learned
that Jacobs had been sent back to
uduild anu ohV lOiAoW Cu hAbi
forthwith.
Back again at Manila, the deter
mined maiden found that the
chase was only begun. Jacobs had
started around the world aboard
the battleship Illinois with the At
lantic squadron. She renewed the
pursuit on the first steamers that
touched at the ports made by Ad-
miral Evans fleet.
Now the stern chase appears to
be at an end. Jacobs has been
granted a furlough. He arrived In
San Francisco yesterday and is at
the Fairmont hotel. Miss Dunlap
accompanied by Mrs. Joseph s.
Evans, her matron Of honor, is
aboard the transport Sheridan
somewhere on the waters of the
Pacific and will reach this city
probably this week. 1t Is thought
that the wedding will be celebrat-
ed soon after the big ship reaches
fits dock.

rosy"
When Early went to the leper's
cottage his face was covered with
sores, his lips swollen, and his
head racked with fever. Today
his skin Is as clear as that Of a
well person. His eyes are bright,
and he weighs as much as he ever
did in his life.

Early to an attendant, who bore

adjudged leper, remaining out
of doors every day from morning
until night, and determining to be
cured. l read my Bible daily. My
conviction is that IL the simple
laws of nature are followed, and
ones faith is always maintained,
even miracles will result, as in the
days when Jesus was on earth in
flesh"
Mrs. Early is convinced her hus-
band has thrown off the bondage
of leprosy. She is a little, sweet
faced woman, courageous and
hopeful.
Mrs. Early and her two children
Emanuel, 2h years old, and Paul
months old, live in one part OF
the building, and the father lives
in the other. Early can see his
wife and children and talk to
them, but can not approach neal
enough to touch them with his
hand.
Early contracted leprosy while

the disease in his blood until he

then in pitiful stage. and the

NIAGARA
FREEZES

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
BUFFALO, April 12.-For the
second time in the memory of
man, Niagara Falls was frozen
solid and the rocks were dry yes
terday. The unusual phenomena
was caused by a jam of ice that
has been in Lake Erie, forcing It
self into the river, and the wind
changing while a heavy freeze
came ON. solidifying the mass and
making a great wall of ice across
the river and effectually shutting
the water from the falls.
When the water began to rise
in the river back of the jam
great destruction was wrought.
The whole country was flooded
and the damage will be $1,000
900.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April ~.
Have love and unparalleled
faith cured John Early, the army
leper?
All indications point that way.
He is still living in his little
brick house out along the Poto-
mac, but to all appearances he is a
well man.
If John Early is cured, faith
and love-and not medicine-have
cured him. He has escaped the
most dreaded end that can come
to man-if he is really cured as
many believe-simply by concen.
trating his mind on the thought

bies."
Physicians do not want to go on
record just yet relative to whether
Early is cured. They had not ex-
amined him for two months. They
had placed him. together with his
wife and two children, who clune
to him in spite of his entreaty they
protect themselves, in the forlorn
little house by the blue Potomac tc
die. Armed guard was placed over
him to prevent his escape. They
thought there was no use to ex.
anime him again. He was proven
beyond all possibility of doubt tc
be leper.
Upon seeing him recently they
were astonished by his appearance
He looked we'll man. Within q
few days they will make a scien-
