The Lesson of Love.

Our lives would be better, our
thoughts nobler, our hearts larger, our
faith more real, our words more char
liable, if we would, once for all, learn
the lesson of the law and the prophets,
which is not to glide along the razor's
edge of scholastic dogmas or to wear
formulas threadbare by conventional
iteration, but to love God and to do
good to our neighbor.-Farrar.

London Cellar Restaurants.

Before coffee stalls were instituted
the humblest places of refreshment
were cellars. where the hard up as
the slang phrase went, could dive for
a dinner" with choice of such viands
as tripe. COW heel. sausages and shin
of beef soup. Some of the cellar res
taurants existed as recently as the ear
ly seventies of the last century in
Butcher row. Temple Bar and the net
work of courts and alleys swept away

Gratitude.


Some plays ''take" and some don't,
and the fact that they do or do not is
not always a criterion Of their merit
Last season an excellent play, with
very good and we'll known actor in
the star role, failed utterly. Night aft
err night the curtain rose on an all but
empty house. One evening just as he
was about to enter the theater the
leading man was approached by a
ragged beggar and permitted himself
to be touched" for quarter.
"a thousand thanks" the beggar
said, evincing rather surprising
knowledge of English as he pocketed
the coin. .'To you this does not mean
much. To me it is half the world, and
/ am willing to show my appreciation.
If you will give me pass / will go
in and see your how."-Lippincott's.

 Every Clue.

sharon. Pa, Mch. 20.-James s. whftia, the father of 8 year old Will liam Whitfa who was kidnapped from the Second Ward school here on Thurs day morning stated tonight that there were no new developments In the search for his child.
 Frank H. Buhl, the millionaire un-. cIe of the missing boy. returned late today from Cleveland, Ohio, where he went last night to investigate several reports that the boy and his kidnap- pers had been captured in that city and said the reports were untrue. Mir. Buhl, said the boy seen In Cleveland resem bled the missing lad somewhat.
 The police and a squad of thirty members of the State constabulary which arrived here with their mounts this afternoon. are securing the coun- try about here, in the hope of secur- ing evidence that will lead to the cap ture of the kidnappers.
 nThe search tonight centeredx about Warren, Ohio. near which place the boy was reported as seen two nights ago and where the buggy in which he was taken from here was found. The many police officers and detectives as- sisted by a squad of twenty-three members of the Pennsylvania State constabulary, besides the friends of the bereaved family, are throughly ex- ploring every spot around Buffalo, N. Y, in the hope of securing evidence that will lead to the capture of the abductors and the return of the boy to his parents.
 Frank H. Buhl, the uncle of the boy said that all rumors emanating from the Forest City had proved incorrect. MT. Buhl said he had an idea that the boy would be found near Youngstown. Ohio.
 A long conference was held this af- ternoon in MT. Whtla's office, in which Detective J. F. WardI of Philadelphia. Martin Grain, chief of police of this city, and others, taking a prominent part in the search for MT. Whitla's son. participated.
 Shortly after the conference several officers left for parts unknown on mission about which they would say nothing. It was intimated that deti- nite clue had been received and the men were on their way to investigate. The whitla family and their close friends are extremely secretive in re- gard to all matters concerning the search for their son. However. they denied rumors that they had received ommunication from the abductors. Mir. Sehilling. business partner of Mir, Whitla, said there is no limit placed in the letter as to the time in which the ransom should be paid.
 Attorney Whitla received informa- ton today that a boy answering the description of his son was seen enter ing Asttabula. Ohio, Thursday after noon. A conductor noticed the boy and

 At the time of the tragedy he was cutting briars in the fence jams. and seeing the offcers approach he started to run away and get into gully close by. They ordered him, to stop which he refused to do and just as he started to jump in the gully he was shot in the back by one of the deputies. the ball Eoing in on the right side of the spinal icolumn, ranging upward and coming out of the left breasr In two places, the ball having spit against bone.
 After Evans fell Deputy Collier went to him when Evans told him he had killed him (Evans) but even then If he had a gun he would kill him (Collier.)
 Evans was then carried back to the house and physicians summoned,
 It is denied by his friends that Evans fired a shot, or that he even had gun.
 It Is said that Evans has been mak- ing liquor illicitly for a number of years and that he has been before the authorities on this charge more than once
