STILL KILLING OFF ARMENlANS
Dispatches to German Paper Sa, That Massaeres Have Been
 Resumed.

Berlin, June 10.-The Tagebatt's Aleppo correspondents states that the Turkish authorities last week exc cuted 12 of the ring leaders, includ ing six Armenians, concerned in tho Adana massacres. The energetic course of the government, the corre- spondent adds, caused the populace in the region between Alexandretta anC the mountains to start new mass acre, in which about 100 persons were slain.
 The young Turk committee did everything possible to prevent the dis orders. They are in need of rein forcements, however. The situation occasions great anxiety. the agitators denouncing the sultan as an infidel who had sold himser.

One of TWO MystcrIes-TF

One of Two Mysterles-The Circus.
 So long as the hearts of men con. tain one chambe. which does not grow with them beyond childhood, so long as women bear children, the circus will live-which will be forever. The circus is immortal
 The circus is an elusive thing; a clear-skied morning, and it is here, filled with boasting and noise. laugh. ing at our troubles from out of a Falstafiian mirth. Then in the murk of night it slips away again, as if it knew that we are but children and would be gone without farewells, Rough men marshal it. grimy with its labor; rude are It's jests and coarse it's people seem at times; but down under the crust of them anc the dust of the worlds highway is that touch of ten. derness which no circus man has ever been without, since they grew wise and left the rest of us children still.
 There are two things in life which are full of magic and mystery-the circus and the sea.

MAY IND|CTLEADERS
GOVERNMENT ON THE TRAIL OF FASHIONABLE sMuGcLERs
 IN NEW YORK.
MAY CATCH SOCIETY WOMEN
TeIltaIe Initials Were Found on 73 Parlsian Gowns by the Treasury of. ficIais--Deteetives Are Working on the Glue.

New York. June 10.-Unless the plans of the government go astray, several fashionable women of large means will be placed in the unfor- tunate position of being indicted on a criminal charge of smuggling and hay ing to face trial which may termi- nate in the prison sentence.
 Special treasury agents ana secret service men are busy trying to estab- fish the ownership of 73 fine Paris gowns which have been withdrawn from the auction sales in the customs house of the contents of five trunks seized several weeks ago.
 On each of the 73 gowns there Is a set of tell-tale initials. On one is the last name of the supposed owner. Using these initials as ground work, government detectives are striving to fill up the gap between letters and the full names of these owners. The gov ernment detectives here are being aid- ed by the corps of special treasury agents in Paris. The names of the modistes who made the gowns are known, and lists of their American patrons are being obtained, and when these lists are completed comparisons of them with the sets of initials will be made.
 Ever since Collector Loeb was of fered s260,000 in cash by lawyer in full settlement of all the claims of the government growing out of the seiz- ure of the five trunks whose contents were appraised at only $5,000, customs officials have been satisfied that a large number of wealthy persons feared they would be involevd In crim- inal proceedings and undertook to avert indictment by peaceably buying off the government.
 In trying to get at the persons re- sponsible for the offer. government detectives have been against a seem ingly endless chain of lawyers. The lawyer who made the offer to Col lcctor Loeb was merely hired by an. other lawyer to do that specific thing. He, it has been learned. knows no body in the case except the lawyer who hired him. The detectives have dug behind the second lawyer only to find another lawyer and they are now on the track of a fourth

ALUCKY KANSAS BOY
AN ORPHAN GETS MILLIONS OF DOLLARS THROUGH A QUEER
 TURN OF EVENTS.
HIS MOTHER WAS A TOPEKA GIRL
By the Death of Mrs. Emma Nelson Mcciintock in Chicago, Her Five Year-Old Son lnherits Property Worth Nearly $e,ooo,o0o.

Chicago, June g--Through the death of his mother, Mrs. Emma Nelson Nc Clintock, five-year-old William McClin- tock was left an orphan with nearly SG,00O 900.
 It is q strange sequence of events waich has led to the making of this young millionaire, for the bulk of the money was made by man who never knew or heard of the little boy or his mother Mrs. McClintock was the widow of William McClintock, who for several years was widely known In real estate circles in Chicago. He came here about 14 years ago and. previous to that time, he was com paratively poor ana unknown man hv- ing in Lemars, Iowa.
 When he married Miss Emma Nel- son of Topeka, about seven years ago, he was a millionaire several times over through an inheritance from his first wife, who, before he married her, was Mrs. Sarah Hickling, a widow. with about $4,000,000 which came to her through the death of her first husband.
 Mrs. Emma McClintock died snd- denly from heart trouble in Chicago, whence she had come from her win ter home in Texas. When Mir. Mo Clintock married Mrs. Hickling he came to Chicago and the couple start ed housekeeping in Calumet avenue, where the second Mrs. McClintock died. The money which his first wife brought him was invested in Chicago real estate, and it has increased so much that now Alexander Reichmann. who is handling the estate, estimates that it is worth nearly s6,000,0O0, all of which will go to the son. Willian.
 The first Mrs. McClintock lived only few years after her second mar riage, and she left her whole fortune to her second husband. He married again within few years, and tw0 years after the marriage the cniId, William, was born.
 MT McClintock met his death May | IT, 1907, in motor car accident. sffs. McClintock's relatives are living in Topeka, and William probably will go | 10 them.

After sundry unsuc. cessful attempts to interest Jan in his small affairs he waxed wroth, and one morning his father heard a tempest in the garden, eliminating in "Oh, Ian, you're such Q fool!" Father took matters in hand at this point and an instant apology was next in order Jim rebelled, but finally calmed his rufiied feelings and went to the az grieved gardener, more in sorrow than in anger. with Jan, Tin awflly sorry you're fool"
