Ellsworth. Kan, Oct. 1s.--Near
Genseo. Kan. the sheriff's posse Is
believed today to be close on the trail
OF Chas. Marzyek, sought In connec-
ton with the fiye Snowman murders.
The deputy sheriff sent to Geneseo by
Sheriff Rufus Bradshaw, reported to-
day that man answering the descri2-
ton Of Mar2yek had been seen there
few hours previously
Sheriff Bradshaw and deputy I'M
mediately raced to Geneseo In an au-
tomobiIe. The prosecutors office here
awaits a report from the posse and Ii
prepared to- send additional assistance
TO the officers In case they need 1t.
The suspect seen at Geneeeo is said
by Prosecutor samuel Bartlett to be
the same man who stopped at the
Baker hotel here and left some bloody
cloths on the night OF the murder.
Officers from Ellsworth found that
the man walked from here to Kama
POOLS and then rode passenger train
to Geneseo. He was then traced to a
rooming house In Geneseo.
After having slept only a few hours
during the night scores Of determined
farmers armed with shot guns and
rifles this morning resumed the hunt
for Charles Marzyek. ex-convict who
is suspected OF having murdered the
Snowman family near here few
nights since. as the victims lay asleep.
The impression prevails here that
the farmers forming the man hunting
posse are In such frame of mind
that the suspected man would be sum-
marily IyrEhed should he fall into
their hands. TO obvsate this POSSIBLE
ity the sheriff's officers are making
strenuous effort to capture Marzyek
and spirit him away

foreign passengers. who were given
free accommodations ct the directions
OF the consuis at Hankow. The ship
was so crowded that many Of the
passengers slept on the floors Of the
hold Most of the foreigners were
Russians.
The refugees declared that the whole
Kangtze valley from Hankow TO
Shanghai is in the hands OF the rebels
with the possible exception Of one or
two OF the larger cities to which the
provincial officials have retired, with
their available troops.
1t has been mistakenly stated here
that Kuikiang. $50 miles below Han
kow is under revolutionary control.
This is denied however by foreign Of
ficials and by representative OF the
Chinese custom service
Accounts OF the revolutionary at
tack OF WI Chang as given by the
refugees today emphasize particularly
the massacre Of the Manchus in that
city.
In the slaughter neither age nor
sex was regarded. and It is doubtful,
the refugees say whether single
Representative Of the Manchu race
was left alive there. A similar sIaugh-
ter OF the Manchus followed in Han
kow and Hanyang when those cities
fell.
Fatal Counting Test.
The arrivals from Hankow report
that 500 Manchus were massacred. To
make sure Of the identity OF their
victims the rebels took advantage OF
a slight difference in the Chinese and
Manchu recommendations.
When the suspect was taken he was
ordered to count The crucial test
was his pronunciation of the numeraI
six which in Chinese is "Liushiliu."

In a state Of transition. The early
settlers were Scandinavians and adj
herents OF the Lutheran church. Many
are selling their farms and moving
away, the land being purchased by
farmers from Illinois. We are needed
in that part OF the state to do what
no other church Is doing.
A church site decided to the Metho-
dist presiding elder thirty three years
ago and having nearly passed from
our hands has by the diligence of w.

ference board Of trustees, been secur-

Church Comfy.
We have come face to face with
this problem of our modern church
life. When the Fargo district was d.
vided from what ii now known as the
Bismarck district, there were eight
charges in which we had no organiza-
tions, BUT the sister churches were
well entrenched and had buildings.
We have visited those fields and when
we found the real conditions, left six
OF those towns to the care OF the sis
ter churches. We sought to minis
ter TO the Methodist people at Han
kinson. Faithful efforts and much OF
personal sacrifice on the part OF two
pastors led 10 the conclusion. though
Hankinson was good sized town,
vet there is not room for two English
speaking Evangelical churches. At

tendent of Congregational missions,
We arranged to give way to him All
