BUT MUCH CRAZIER ABOUT TEN
YOUNG MEN AFTER
MARRIAGE.

Butler, Pa, July 2.-According to
testimony by detectives and neighbors
of Alonzo Kennedy, a Cougar old oil
well millionaire, who was granted a
divorce from his 20-year- old wife Mary
by Judge Galbreath, the young bride,
who told Kennedy during their court
ship last September that she was Just
crazy to be an old mans darling" was
just crazy about ten separate young
men admirers in the six months that
followed her marriage.
Kennedy went on the stand and told
the court of the courtship.
Il told her she could never be happy
with an old man like me-" he said,
but she said she had dreamed all her
life Of being an old mans darling"
.Neighbors told about visits of young
admirers for many hours when Mr..
Kennedy was gone and when the
woman was alone in the house.
One night, it was testified, Mrs. Ken
nedy went riding in her husbands rig
and at the edge of town young man
joined her. Detectives watched the
pair while they spent several hours in
a deserted house.

Pittsburg. Pa, July 2.--The Presby-
terrain Ministers association, at it's
meeting this week. was shocked to
hear that Rev. M. B. Lanier, colored.
pastor Of the only colored Presby-
terrain church In Pittsburg, had Joined
the Baptists for peculiar reason.
Trouble had been brewing in his
congregation and eliminated a few
weeks ago when he preached SER
mon in which he avowed his belief
that he had been "hoodooed" by the
devil personally. The eolered preacher
also said he obtained an immediate
cure by faith as soon as he. learned
the real cause of the disease.
Some of his flock then preferred
charges against him for believing In
"hoodooism."
Sunday Mr.. Lanier preached twice
to his own people, and at o. p. m. went
around to the Baptist church and was
baptized In the pool of the church to
remove the spell he believed to have
been cast upon him. Mr.. Lanier Will
hereafter stick to the Baptlsts, 1T is

1t is remarkable indeed to, see the
cures that are made at the Natural
Science Sanitarium- by DR.. Cox
When 1t is considered that he gives
no medicines OF any kind; that the
treatment is composed Of the best
from a number OF drugless healing
methods, combined with baths and
electricity, 1t Is readily apparent
that DR.. Cox has something fully
abreast of the best thought Of the
times.
Recently a number of very re-
markable cures have been per-
formed by DIR. Cox. A number OF
bad cases of chronic kidney disease
have been completely restored to
health by his methods. Append.
citis, Dyspepsia, Rheumatism, Neu'
raigia, Blood Poison. and kindred
troubles have been promptly put tc
rights by the wonderful work OF
Dr. Cox.

They Discuss the Reorganization of

Beverly, Mass, July 5.-Secretary

this afternoon was engaged in a con-
ference with the chief executive on
the subject of the reorganization of
the United States reclamation serv-
ice The beginning of work under the
new $2O,000,000 issue of certificates of
indebtedness, authorized to complete
irrigation projects in the west, also
was discussed

AS soon as the reclamation work is
under way Secretary Ballinger will
leave Washington for a visit to sew
eral of the Indian reservations and
then will go home to Seattle for a
brief stay and an opportunity to look
over his private affairs, which have
been neglected for year or more.
The conference with the president
Will probably be concluded this aft
ernoon and Mr.. Ballinger hopes to be
back in Washington tomorrow.
The members of the new board of
engineers appointed by President TAFT
to examine and report on the various
projects to be carried forward under
the $20,000,0 900 fund are under orders
to report to the secretary of the in
terror at the earliest possible moment.
The secretary would not discuss to-
day any effect his call on the president
might have on the status of F. H.
Newell, director of the reclamation
service. 1t is no secret that Mr.. Bal
linger is anxious that the reclamation
work shall be taken out of Mr.. New
ellis hands. AS a matter of fact, this
purpose seems already to have been
accomplished by act of congress.

BEARISH CONDITIONS.
Prices of Stocks Decline From Two to
Four Points.

New York, July 5.-There was an
other furry in the stock market early
today as the joint effect of a jump in
the prices of wheat, the death of the
chief Justice and the threatened de-
lay in the hearing of the Sherman
law cases, the discussion of a strike
of the Pennsylvania railroad en-
ployes and the impairment of cash
holdings that the clearing house
banks disclosed by the weekly bank
statement.
Stocks which are the favorite me-
dunn of speculation suffered the most,
Reading, Union and Southern Pacific,
st. Paul, Northern Pacific, Atchison
and Z. S. Steel losing from 2 q to 4
points. Prices then rebounded a frac-
ton to point.
Wheat Goes Up.
Chicago, July 5.-On-nervous light
trading, wheat this afternoon showed
an advance of "a to C, the latter
in the December option. Worse and
worse drouth conditions in the spring
crop zone were responsible. Flowing
up OF wheat fields was said to have
been started at many places in Min
nesota. The North Dakota crop, it
was alleged, had gone too far for rain
TO be of help. Damage north of the
canadian Pacific railroad was esti-
mated at 10 to 20 per cent and south
20 to 65 per cent. The price of Sep
tember delivery here reached S1O1 q
and December $1.02.
An additional gain of "a was reg
lstered at the close.
