The conviction seems to be growing in the minds of those who have in quired into the matter that sweet clo- ver-until lately viewed as a useless roadside weed-may have much to commend it as a substitute for alfalfa in sections where climatic or soil con- ditions seem to forbid the growing of the latter most valuable legume. No soil seems so thin and unpromising that the sweet clover does not flourish and do we'll on it. It is rank grower, laughs at dry weather and yields hay that is nutritious and that stock will readily acquire liking for if cut before the stalks get too dry and tough. There are firms which have the seed for sale, while the conditions for sowing it are about the same one should follow in getting a start with alfalfa, including a well mellowed seed bed, free from weed seed and inocu- lated with soil from a spot where sweet clover has been growing thrift fly. A few who have tried it speak encouragingly of the results which they have had with it. Others might well make a trial of it.

SUIT FOR DIVORCE.

During the second trial of the divorce
suit OF Mrs. Elizabeth Lee Keyllle, 4
noted Virginia beauty and relative OF
Fitzhugh Lee, against her husband,
Peter Keville, millionaire woolen
merchant, in the Supreme Court,
Brooklyn, yesterday, Elizabeth Coffey,
the Keyille's servant, who is named by
the wife, interrupted the proceedings
by treatening witness.
TIRE witness was August Then. He
testified that during the summer OF
1904, while Mrs. Keville was in the
country, he saw the Coffey girl sum
mon Kevillc as the latter was leaving
the Keville house at 704 Putnam ave-
nue., and that Kevillc went to the base
ment and kissed the maid.
The Coffcy girl was in court and ut
Thcn's words she sprang to her feet
and shouted: IF | were near you,
I'd fix you.
Mrs. Kcvillc was granted Il divorce at
the first trial of the suit in December,
1906. She secured decree, but ;hls
was reversed by the Appellate Division,
which declared that the witnesses for
Mrs. kcville were 'mcddlcsomc wom-
en- and that it was manifcstly impos-
siblc to hear kissing through stone
walls, as had been testified to by some
OF these witnesses.
The kcvillcS were married in 1880,
when Miss Elizabeth Lee was one OF
the most beautiful dcbutantcs OF Nlr-
ginia. Mr.. kcville is - years her
senior. They separated i'll 1904, Mr..
Keyillc giving his wife 5000 a month
alimony since that time. kevillc de-
nics all the charges and says he was on
his way to Europe at the time that
her witnesses says he was kissing the
maid.

THE LAKE COMO MYSTERY.

A part of mans coat, declared
by some of his fishermen ncighbors
to have belonged to Porter Charlton,
was found yesterday in Lake Como,
Italy, from the waters OF which the
BODY of his murdered bride, Mary
Scott Castle Charlton, was recovered
last Friday.
The torn garment was tishcd up
from the bottom of the lake near the
spot where the trunk containing the
body of the woman was found. Sat
urday's discovery strcngtcnens the
theory of many that a double murder
was committed. Earlier evidence that
both Of the Americans were killed,
presumably for their valuablcs, was
found in the blood-spattcrcd bed at the
villa which they occupied.
1t is declared that the seven wounds
found on the woman's head did not
release any such quantity of blood
as left its stains in their lake shore
home.
Constantine Ispolatoff, the chance
acquaintance OF the Charltons, from
whom they leased the villa, remains
III custody.
Further support OF the double muir
der theory developed as the day pro-
grcSsed.
1t was learned that the investigators
had determined that tho stone with
which the trunk was weighted had
been taken from the wall of the aquc-
duct on the shore OF the lake. The
stone had been removed from u spot
in the wall opposite the point at which
the trunk was submerged.
Following up this clue, the police dis
covered that another stone exactly
similar in size had been recently dug
out of the wall. This is held to be
significant. The second stone, or
rather the first stone removed, has not
been located, and the police will not
be surprised if they should find that
it was used to drag below the surface
of the lake another trunk or box con
taining the body of Porter Charlton.

TO THE
Owners of Dogs!
MAYORS OFFICE

NJ " J OK - Offl('fI,
Alexandria. Va, June IL. 1910.
All persons owning or intending to
keep any animal of the dog or canine
species should come forward on or before

tic Auditor After the Both of June all
persons owning or liarborins dogs with
out the required license are subject to-
fine rs the laws on the subject require OF
$500 or 500.
Complaint has been frequently made
that many persons fail to take out their
license, and that others pay on one or
two dogs when owning and harborlns
moro, or who send such dogs away dur
ing the summer months ana DrlnS lnciii
back in the fall
Attention has been called to this eva
sion Of the law, and policemen will ie-
port all such eases, and fines can be inn
posed upon those who fail to take out
licenses after trial in the Police Court.
In order 10 avoid any mistakes persons
who make application for licenses would
do well to write their names and NUMBER
of residence, street. etc, on card or
paper when making application Tor their
licenses to the Auditor.
Attention is also called to the fact that
while the payment ola license tax is re-
uuired by the laws Of the city, whether
Il dog is kept on the premises of the
owner ut all times or not. yet tho pay
mcnt of such tax does not entitle
the dog to the unrestricted use
of the streets and alleys of the
city. both day and night. for it is
provided by law that: THE Mayor. IN
addition. 1T any and all times, in his dis
crction. by proclamation. shall declare
that all such dogs as above licensed shall

dogs he found running 1T large during
the continuance of such proclamation
without the required muzzlc they shall
be seized by the police force or other
persons designated by the Mayor for
such purposes and conveyed to Il suitable

TOWN SINKS IN EARTH.

A subSidencc of the surface at Avoca,
near Wilkes Barre, Pa, yesterday
morning, due to the old workings Of
the Pennsylvania Coal Company mines
seriously damaged St. Mary'S Catholic
Church, the parochial residence adj
Joining and IA other houses. Terri
tory to the extent of 100 acres is at
fectcd.
The ground beneath the church was
the center of the disturbance, and for
500 feet in a radius from the church
the ground is opened by many fissureS.
The foundation walls of the church are
torn and cracked while the building is
twisted off the walls and the violent
wrenching and settling made wreck
OF the interior.
The other places damaged are twist
cd and shaken, while their foundation
walls are cracked and broken. The
settling of the ground was from few
Inches to three feet. The water mains
in Sthe streets were broken. and this
added in the damage. Frequently
roars and rumblingS are audible and
indicate that further falls of roof are
occurring in the old workings, and it
is feared further and more extended
subSidcnce of the surface will follow.
